Replacing the keyboard should pretty easy if you can get a replacement off eBay. Hell I managed to completely take my laptop to pieces and replace the power socket......
Surprised its still working. I spilt a tiny drop of water on mine, first the keyboard went and then the whole computer stopped working to prevent further damag. I would turn it off and get it repaired else you may be paying for a whole lot more.
Unless it's a fairly new laptop you may find it's not worth it. Cup of tea went on one of mine - no sugar, so there's a chance, but I'm not holding my breath.
Spilt a pint of Vodka and Coke on mine and it works fine. I took out the battery, disconnected the power and then blew warm air from a hairdryer on it in 45 min intervals for about 3 mins a time (hairdryer on lowest setting). Aimed the heat at where the battery goes as it gave access to the motherboard quickly and easily. I know i was lucky but it also worked when my dog jumped out of my pool and straight over my mobile phone (took about 20 hrs to work correctly though, but the laptop only took about 6 hrs). Also i've been told to put a mobile phone into a bag of rice if you get it wet as it draws the water out (not tested this though and i hope i don't have to).
Won't help you now, but maybe it will help people in the future. But remember to use the hairdryer on the lowest setting so you don't overheat the motherboard or memory etc...
Guess i spilt the correct drink then but i'm not going to disagree with you as you know you can get bloodstains out of carpets . Not a disagreement as i don't want to test your blood/carpet coment but they are both still liquid items on electrical equipment (whilst switched on realy not good), (coins, carpets etc don't act the same way as electronics do). Just my opinion though. Normaly when you use a liquid item to clean electrical equipment you do so with a cotton bud or similar,(with power OFF), (to prevent it flooding the electrical equipment and shorting it etc...) you don't pour a pint of it into it and hope for the best. So i STRONGLY advise people not to use Vodka and Coke as a way of cleaning there Laptops/mobiles etc. But like i said, iwon't disagree, i don't want to test the blood/carpet thing. p.s. i have tiles so easier to clean up (err, think i should shut up now and not help him lol).
Just had it back from someone who changed the keyboard, cleaned the motherboard, charged me £62. Mobile PC Guru the guy was, his telephone number is 07533134663 and his site is www.mobilepcguru.co.uk
something similar happened to my old keyboard but only d-K stopped working.... buy a cheap usb keyboard, plug it in and rest it on top of the laptop keyboard, thats all i done until i got my new 1
