key.js is certainly the simpliest shortcut key event handler ever. As simple as I say it is to use!
The "plugin" was written to be small, useful and nothing more.
It is quite simple!
1st Include the script:
<script src='key.js'></script>
2nd Call the function:
key('your key', function() {
// your function
});
3rd Press your key!
ESC
key('esc', function() {
alert('esc');
});
CTRL + C
key('ctrl c', function() {
alert('ctrl c');
});
CTRL + SHIFT + A
key('ctrl shift a', function() {
alert('ctrl shift a');
});
Get the raw script, download the complete package or fork it on GitHub.
