I am trying to combine a keydown event with a mousedown event. Basically, I have a chat dialog, and if the user writes in one of 2 divs (keydown event) or makes a selection from either (or both) of 2 dropdowns (mousedown), I need these to have the same exact function. Thanks in advance.

Code (to be combined):

$('#usermsg').add('#otherComments').keydown(function() { // When key pressed

and

$('#strategies').add('#whySwitch').mousedown(function() { // When mouse is clicked
  //function body
});
