I think you can use onKillFocus and onSetFocus. When onSetFocus. Your
key listners always update the current focus scrollbar (e.g. set a
reference as currScrollbar) when onSetFocus, currScrollbar=this

Hi Dan

Thanks for your comments.
The use of arrow keys has been requested by the client. I may have to
try and talk them out of it.

But it makes sense visually - the sliders are arrows pointing left
and right, and it's important that the user can slide them as little
or as much as they like (constrained only by their extreme left and
right limits).

My plan was to use left and right arrow keys and a setInterval so
they can be moved smoothly and easily.

If the choice is to either follow the rules and make it cumbersome,
or break the rules make it easy, my choice would be to make it easy
for non-mouse users. Just looking for the best way.

Thanks

David
