The click event has a ctrlKey property. If it's true the ctrl-key is being pressed. Example:

<button id="mybutton">click me + ctrl</button>
<script>
    document.getElementById("mybutton").addEventListener("click", function () {
    alert(event.ctrlKey ? "ctrl key pressed" : "ctrl key not pressed");
});
</script>

Capture the click event and check if ctrl is down. easy!

$("#div").click(function(event) {
 if (event.ctrlKey) {
   // ctrl + click is pressed
 }
});
