( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

I looked into adding keyboard shortcuts to PM, but the main problem was that these shortcuts conflicted with browser-specific shortcuts. The only shortcut keys possibly available seem to be the digits 0 to 9.

I haven't investigated if it is possible to add keyboard shortcuts by using JavaScript. If that's possible, then it would be possible to have a set of prepared hotkey-adders depending on the browser and language the user uses.

The one site I'm aware of which uses hotkeys (https://banking.postbank.de) uses Alt-1 etc. as hotkeys, so I assume there is no better cross-browser, cross-language way.

If somebody comes up with sensible mappings for the numbers and items they'd like to have alt keys for, these are very welcome if only as starting points for those who have the JavaScript ability but lack the keyboard usage.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
