You can detect they key pressed on almost any mouse event:<br />

<br />
Every listener function will receive an &quot;eventObject&quot; where you can identify if control is pressed or not, <br />
example:<br />

<pre><code id="code-20-40807940-1">$('#elementId').mouseup(function(eventObject){
    var isCtrlPressed = eventObject.ctrlKey;
    alert(isCtrlPressed )   // true or false whether ctrl is pressed or not 
  });</code></pre>

I am currently using a Jquery selectable to allow users to select block.<br />
It allows them to drag and select but i would also like to allow users to select individual blocks and this is achievable by having the ctrl key pressed when the page loads.
