You'll need to try the X300/X308 forum section.

Watch the left side of the front dome and turn the key on. See what it does, light up solid or flash. [when you use the good key, it will stay on solid] If it flashes, the key is either not programmed to the security system, or the key housing has lost the transponder pellet. If you separate the remote from the key portion, on the side of the housing opposite the key blade, there should be a small white silicone capsule in a recess. That is the transponder. No pellet, no start.

After you check that out, tell me how many keys you have that WILL start the car.
[just to clarify, we are talking about the '06 XJ, right??]

Cheers,
wow,thank you for posting the part about the transponder, after trying everything to get my eBay purchased Key to work, your post solved my problem.
Cheers .
