What DOM events are available to WebKit on Android?

I'm building a mobile web app targeting Android users. I need to know what DOM events are available to me. I have been able to make the following work, but not terribly reliably:

  • click
  • mouseover
  • mousedown
  • mouseup
  • change

I have not been able to get the following to work:

  • keypress
  • keydown
  • keyup

Does anyone know the full list of what is supported and in what contexts (e.g., is onchange only available to form inputs?)? I can't find a reference for this on The Googles.

Thanks!

Update: I asked the same question on the Android developers list. I will be doing some more testing and will post my results both here and there.

Since this is the second most popular Android + JavaScript post on SO (which is just a sad commentary on the state of web development targeting the Android platform), I thought it may be worthwhile including a link to pkk's touch event test results at http://www.quirksmode.org/mobile/tableTouch.html and also http://www.quirksmode.org/mobile/ in general.
