Solve : keyboard button is stuck?

1.	Solve : keyboard button is stuck?
Answer» my left shift button is stuck on down. i removed it and tried to put it back in but it just goes back in stuck . i cant click with it. I am thinking that if keyboard is of any significant age then - time for replacement ...... something from newegg.com or techforless.com perhaps. Usual reason for sticking is spillage of something stickly but if not that and something that'll CLEAN up, then may not be too much else you can do. Hard to tell entirely without the problem in front of me to look at - tho I have over the years managed to deal with key problems successfully a time or two.

The current market price for a keyboard including a mouse at the Sally Anne is $1.99 I got a set, works like a charm. the shift key usually includes a metal flange that acts to hold the key up- if you don't have that metal flange in the exact right position, it will stay stuck down.
