Well, I've had this iBook for about a year now and with my luck the warranty expired a week ago. I dropped a spoon on my keyboard and the spacebar became sticky. I popped it off and fixed it (or so I thought). Later on I popped it off again but now it won't pop back on. I don't have $100 or the time to pay and let Apple replace my keyboard.
Any advice or suggestions?

Superglue?
I don't' think your supposed to pull off individual keys on laptops 
So i'll have to concur with Dessimat0r and say you'll have to attempt to glue it back on.

wow don't listen to these guys ;P
the key should pop on. maybe you are not aligning it correctly? perhaps you are not sticking the little metal support thing in its little clips?
there is a small chance you broke the little clips off of the key or whatever. in this case i don't know what to suggest.
gluing the key in place would just cause it to not move up and down and i don't know what the point in that would be.
