        With applet "Ctrl" key combinations are not working in all the browsers. "Ctrl" key is used with different combinations to open the new window, new tab or to fire the print. This is very serious bug, as all the "Ctrl" key combinations are not working. User can't use keybord to open the new tab/new window/print/new file when focus is inside the applet.

        How to reproduce.
        1.) Open the Arc test demo in IE/Firefox/Mozilla browser
        <JDK_INSTALL_DIR>/demo/applets/ArcTest/example1.html
        2.) Set the focus inside the textfield
        3.) Press "Ctrl + T"/ "Ctrl + P"/ "Ctrl + N" / "Ctrl + O"or any other "Ctrl" key combinations

        Expected bahaviour
        It should open a new tap (with "Ctrl + T") or new window (with "Ctrl + N") or print dialog (with "Ctrl + P").

        Actual Behaviour
        Pressing any of the mentioned key combination does nothing when focus is inside the applet.

        This bug can be reproduced always on all the browseres as well in all the releases of JDK/JRE. I have tested on JRE 6u5 b02 and 5.0u10 releases.
