[manusiatidakbiasa]

Hi,

I am new in javascript,

I am currently building a simple website,
and I like to make a keyboard shortcut
so when someone press ctrl-1,
it will give keyboard focus to a textbox

can anyone help me?

Have a look at the example.

function getKeyCode(e)
{
 var key_code = (typeof e.which) ? e.which : e.keyCode;
 //In IE 'keyCode' is valid and in Mozilla based browsers 'which' is valid
 var alt_key = e.altKey, ctrl_key = e.ctrlKey;
}
 

<input type = text onkeydown = "getKeyCode(event)">
 

Good Luck.

Kind regards,
