  They ought to work, if not then there is a bug I'll have a look!
  On which browser did you test ?

  if so then it must be your code somehow?

  Hi, I press the up and down and nothing happens. Click, mucisas animations and function normally.
  I used google chrome.

  Well, it looks like I found the problem. On several occasions when loading gideros.html file is necessary for the browser to a focus on the html of the body. I realized that if I keep clicking on the logo Gideros loading, then the keyboard works normally. However even if I click on top of the game after loading it happens then the keyboard does not work.
  The solution was to create a index.html with a hyperlink that calls the gideros.html when clicked.
  
  Test for windows and html5

  I only have to click on the webpage once and it works for me? In the bacteria demo, where did you click for the keyboard not to work (a screenshot would be best) - I'll see if it also happens for me here.

  There is at least one other good reason to have the user click on the app: on most browsers, sounds are not allowed to play until the user click at least once.

  I think what happens is that in some servers that you upload the html5 they display the gideros.html within a or through an include ... I think that causes a browser loss of focus and he does not know where you run the keyboard.

  Yes, so it's interesting for the game in html5 attract the click of the player, either through a play button or menu option, customizing the mouse cursor etc ... Well, but the good news is that it is not a Gideros bug but a feature of how the web platform.
