JQuery.ShortcutKeys

Add keyboard shortcuts to any element in your page easy

To assign a shortcut to an element you should only use the setShortcutKey() function, this function has the following parameters:

mod Defines the modifier key, in case a combination is not used, the value NULL is used as a parameter
key Defines the key to be used for the shortcut
func Defines the function that will be assigned to the shortcut


The following shows how the shortcut method, defined with the key combination ALT + RETURN, would be set in the #example element:

$("#ejemplo").setShortcutKey( ALT , RETURN , function() { alert("Hola mundo"); } );



You can also set the key code as shown below and the result will remain the same:

$("#ejemplo").setShortcutKey( 18 , 13 , function() { alert("Hola mundo"); } );
