Misha says: the latch on the back of the key is probably broken. You need to replace the key. Try searching "buy1key" on eBay. They'll ask for your keyboard model (and which key it is, of course) and you'll get a key with an intact latch that should go on and stay on.
I have the suspicion this is a little more complicated. It's a laptop keyboard, and the key is fine, it's the little bit that goes between the key and the keyboard that's the issue.
But thank you. I'll go poke and see what I can find.
We assumed it was a laptop keyboard, yes. And Misha says that the little bit in question - a bit of plastic frame that fits into hinges on the back of the key and on the surface of the keyboard backing - will be part of the new key you buy.
