What is keyboard ghosting?

A keyboard scans a matrix of switches. On some keyboards, particular combinations cannot be distinguished reliably. Ghosting can produce phantom inputs; key blocking can prevent some pressed keys from registering. This page shows the events that actually reach your browser.

How to check rollover

Hold a group of keys that you use together in a game or application. Count the physical keys you are holding, then compare that count with the displayed keys. Repeat with different combinations. A peak count describes this session, not a certification of your keyboard’s full rollover capability.

Browser limitations

Fn, operating system shortcuts, and some media keys may never reach a website. Losing focus clears the held list. If a key is missing, compare results in another application before concluding there is a hardware problem.
