Has anybody else had problems with detecting if event.shiftKey is true? It
seems ever since I upgraded to 2.0.1 I've lost the ability to see if the
user has shift, crtl'd, or alted a key while clicking on something. Below is
a function I wrote a good amount of time ago that worked for the longest
period of time and it seems that it stopped working just as soon as I
upgraded.


// GLOBAL OPEN LINK FUNCTION
   public function openLink(event:MouseEvent, linkURL:String):void {
       trace(event.shiftKey);
       if(event.shiftKey){
           trace(" You ShiftClicked!!!!");
           var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(linkURL);
           navigateToURL(request, "_blank");
       }
   }

That function traces false every time no matter what you got down on the
keyboard. Anyone have ideas or similiar problems?
