Hi Laurie,
I created a Shockwave game several years ago that utilzed keypresses. In order to get the shockwave movie to respond to the key events, I had to put a "click here to start" button at the beginning of the movie. Otherwise, the shockwave itself did not initially have focus while running in the browser window. The mouse click brought the shockwave into focus where it then responded to key events. Perhaps this is your problem?
