Question

I have a requirement wherein I must restrict the user viewing my web page. Users should not be allowed to press Ctrl+Tab before finishing a task in the page.

Is there a way to detect Ctrl+Tab keypress in javascript/jQuery?

Answer 1

This code will detect CTRL+Tab:

$(document).keydown(function(e) {
    if (e.ctrlKey && e.which == 9) {
        alert("CTRL + TAB Pressed")
    }
})

Note however that CTRL+Tab functionality is controlled by the browser and you cannot stop it as this fiddle will demonstrate if you have more than one tab open:
