Hi

We are in need of providing hot key support to our users using Alt keys.
This means that user can navigate between various screen using Alt plus any other key.

The first character of any Name on the menu should be bold and capitalised and accessible through Alt key so that the link that menu points get clicked.

Please specify whether this feature is enabled/available in current verion of library.please consider this request as urgent.

Regards

Version 2.1 of keypress.js does have hotkey functionality.

You can get this module from http://milonic.com/keypress.js

Might need some modification to get it to work with the alt key, as the browsers menu also uses alt and we disabled it due to conflicts

Hi

In our application, we have removed browser tool bar from the IE6.0 using some javascript and we are in greater need of hotkeys through Alt keys.This is our requirement of business.

I have gone through your code base and when u create an aI item, I am not able to find any property through which we can associate some hot key with the item.

Currently user has to press Ctrl+F2 for menu focus and tab and arrows for navigation within menu.

Can a developer associate a property for an Item so that it can be used for hotkeys ?

Please address this issue and help us.

Thanks
