Using custom Browser Keyboardshortcuts

Question

I am looking for some hints/examples how to get Keyboardshortcuts working for my Browser.

Lets take Internet Explorer 7 to get an Idea how this can work...any ideas?

Answer 1

Web Applications can define keyboard shortcuts using Access Keys:

<a href="..." accesskey="s">Save</a>

or

<input type="submit" value="Save" accesskey="s" />

The modifier you have to press to trigger the shortcut is different in each browser, take a look at the Wikipedia entry for more information.
