Ctrl or Shift effects on the `onclick` event of an anchor tag in each browser

I recently discovered that diff开发者_如何学JAVAerent browsers handle the onclick event differently when the Control or Shift keys are pressed. They diverge similarly on behavior for for following links by clicking the middle mouse button.

With the following link:

<a href="http://www.example.com/" onclick="alert('onclick');">go to example.com</a>

Left     Ctrl           yes       yes       yes       yes       ?         yes       no        no        ?
Left     Shift          yes       yes       yes       yes       ?         yes       yes       yes       ?
Middle   None           yes       no        yes       no        ?         N/A       no        no        ?

Can someone please fill in the question marks for me? Also; I'm wondering if the behaviour differs for each version of Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Opera.

Finding a logical pattern in this behavior would be even nicer, but I don't think there is one, unfortunately. :)


See my answer to a related question.

This is due to the "expected behaviour" when a user uses click-modifier keyboard buttons - the user expects Ctrl+Click on a link to open that link in a new tab or window. The chaps at Microsoft decided that the only reason a user would Ctrl+click because they were expecting that behaviour, thus, such clicks do not fire the onclick event in Internet Explorer.
