My application is due to run on a touch screen. Is it possible to have a "keyboard" button on a web page which bring up an on-screen keyboard which I can activate with "Cntr"+"Win"+"O"

Have you tried Google? A quick search gave me the following:

Thanks for the reply and I did try google and saw some of the sites you reference. However my technical skills are limited and one of those site for example was build a keyboard key by key. I have no JavaScript experience to follow all those instructions.

I can bring up a microsoft keyboard by entering "Cntr"+"Win"+"O" but with out a keyboard to do this I need to know how to embed this key sequence command into a button some similar.

I wish I was more technically literate but as I can do most things I want in WYSIWYG by drag & drop just thought someone must have done just that already with an on-line keyboard.

I'm sorry, there is no standard solution's for this, because this is not a frequently requested feature. This will require a third party script.

You should also remember that not all visitors to your site will be Windows users, you have Mac (iPad iPhone) and Android, so the following "Cntr"+"Win"+"O" won't work for them. You may have to rethink this so all users are covered.
