Can HTML5 simulate key board shortcuts?

I would like to code a custom button on my webpage that does the same thing as Command f (or Control f) on the keyboard (search a page function). For example on my Roster page with 1700 names LocatedRoster the viewer could click my custom button instead of using the keyboard command for search.

This is a Javascript solution

Spotlight will not remember key board shortcut

I can not get spotlight to open using my keyboard short cuts.
I set them to 'option' 'space' and when I close the 'system preferences' and try using 'option' 'space' -- nothing happens. When I go back in to the spotlight system preferences -- my key board shortcuts are gone.

no that's not the case. when I re-open system preferences and click on 'spotlight' (and takes about 45 second to load and open spotlight preferences, strange it's soooo slow to open) -- and I look at the 'spotlight menu keyboard shortcut' -- the earlier assign value 'control space' (using the dropdown) is cleared. I can re-assign it to 'contol space' and then try using 'control space' but nothing happens.

Resurrect: Can I use the Key Board Shortcuts to use Commands like "Save"(Ctrl+S), "Refresh"(F5) etc?

Many months ago Simon Jones asked if it was possible to capture screen level key events and redirect them to perform functions in our screens. There was some discussion about having to get into the detail Silverlight events and a statement of the high
level of difficulty. I would like to resurrect the question and see if anyone in the community has developed a solution to this that could be applied to all screens in a solution.
Regards
Cliff

Key Board Shortcuts for C6

Hey Laitos,
I Just want to know the Keyboards Shortcuts of Nokia C6. So one can use this shortcuts for fast
handling of this full featured phone. I had a question in my mind suppose due to some reason
touch screen is not working whereas the display (screen) is ok, in that case how to use this
phone. As instance while operating/working within some application , I want to move back to previous page
the only option available to me was go the right corner of the screen and click the "BACK" icon
using touch screen. so is there any other option on the keyboard to move back and so
on... Even I tried the back space key but it was not working.
Take the case of computer if the mouse is not working there are many options available to
work on computer with the help of KEYBOARD.
So Please Guide.
Thanks

I'd like to know, too> According to your manual: "Your device has a proximity sensor. To extend battery life and prevent accidental selections, the touch screen is disabled automatically during calls, when you place the device next to your ear." All well and good, but how do you get the screen back when you are confronted by a call menu - "if you want billing, press 1, if you want tech service, press 2. To hear these options again, press 3." Since the screen has been disabled automatically, how do you press 1 and/or make a selection? The manual simply doesn't say. Weezy

Can you define key commands / shortcuts in PSE6?

Hello,
working in PSE 6 in mac OSX Leopard, I often wonder why some commands and menus have shortcuts while others do not.
Wouldn't it be rather practical to have the possibility to write your own shortcuts to practically any function / action of the app?
One I really miss is for the contrast / lightness menu for example, and some more.
as fas as I know, there is no such function in PSE6 as of now, or is there?
Any plans to implement it in future releases?
Thanks!

Well in OS X, you can define a Shortcut for any function in the menu bar.
Go to OSX Systemprefs -> Keyboard and mouse and select "Keyboardshortcuts". Here you can add shortcuts for any function in the menu of any App.
However if you want to create some shortcuts for something that is not in the menu (brushes adjustments etc.) you will fail, and I dont think that there is any way to define/adjust shortcuts like in PS CS4.

Key board shortcuts (iPhone

Hi,
I have an iPad 4th gen and iPhone 5. Both are running iOS 7 but my keyboard shortcuts won't synchronise.
The ones on my iPad are different to my iPhone but I have iCloud on both and document and data switched on for both.
Can anyone help please? I've tried to reset the settings via iCloud.com and also done a full restore today but my iPad has different shortcuts to my iPhone.
Cheers, b

Key Board Shortcut for toggling between Activity table and Activity Detail

Is there any keyboard shortcut for toggling between Activity table and activity detail windows. It if frustrating to use mouse while tweaking relationships of activities.

Unfortunately, there are no shortcuts for this. Prior to the Oracle acquisition, Primavera had it as a goal for R7 to allow the operator to keep their hands on the keyboard most of the time, but this feature didn't make it into the final code. I feel your pain!

While using Illustrator or Photoshop I seem to be hitting a shortcut to lock my key board. Other shortcuts work but can not type anything?

You are planning to do a number of things, so let me first make a suggestion about the overall approach. Instead of: "Before I make a clone of my hard drive I would like to fix this problem so I only have one account with everything in it but I do not know what to move ... or how to safely move it", I would make that clone immediately. And leave it alone until you have completed the reconfiguring and rearrangements you plan to do. This way, if you accidentally do something that needs to be undone, your clone is there with all the originals. By the way, this is the approach I always adopt, whenever I have to do anything drastic with an existing installation.
After all the rearranging etc. of the main drive you just make a new clone that erases the previous one.
The "Deano" account doesn't show up when I go to System Preferences:Accounts. So I assume I must have done something wrong.
This would suggest to me there is only one account, i.e. the principal, or Admin account. Why do you think there is a second account?
Where should I keep all my work files?
You can keep them where ever it is most convenient. As you know, you can create folders within folders, and there is nothing special about the Documents folder. Feel free to ignore it, if that's the way you want to work. You can direct your downloads, the default "save to" locations etc. to the appropriate places, as you work.
Can I create a new place for all my work files and just move them? I know I will have to update linked files within the various software packages but this is not a problem.
By all means.
.. can it be directly on the HD like my Applications folder etc.?
Indeed, yes. Or even on a different hard drive (or partition of the same drive).
And best wishes for the new year, to you too.

See also this article about caret browsing: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Scrolling_with_arrow_keys_no_longer_works
In Firefox 3.6 and later versions you can disable the F7 shortcut that toggles caret browsing by setting the pref accessibility.browsewithcaret_shortcut.enabled to false.
To open the ''about:config'' page, type '''about:config''' in the location (address) bar and press the Enter key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

My key board is stuck in the fuction setting only while in fire fox. i can`t use the question mark i only get this É

My baby must of hit a combination of keys while no one was looking and i don`t have use of some of my keys any more it`s like my function setting on the key board is stuck on. It only does it while in firefox though my keyboard works normally otherwise

In addition to the above:
Windows remembers the keyboard layout setting per application and you may have changed the keyboard layout by accident via a keyboard shortcut.
See:
* http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306993 - HOW TO: Use the Language Bar in Windows XP
The default keys to rotate the layout is a combination (Ctrl+Shift or Alt+Shift) that can easily be used in Firefox to activate a menu item.<br />
To avoid an unintentional switch, assign a specific key sequence (Alt/Ctrl+Shift+number) to select keyboard layouts and remove the key combination to rotate layouts (Alt+Shift or Ctrl+Shift)

When I go into any app that requires me to use the key board I instantly go back to the home page and can't access anything (not even settings)

When ever I go into an application that requires me to use the key board the app just closes down and takes me back to the home page. I can't even get into settings. Also if I bring up the key pad it just sticks after I press a couple of keys? Help? I can't get into fb/pages anything!

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
