Question

I’ve heard about javascript solutions, and accessorkeys…

Don’t know either… but there seem to be mixed feelings about which to use.

I want standard key shortcuts for each OS (command for mac, ctrl for everything else)

any help / links / tutorials would be very appreciated.

Answer 1

Try using js-hotkeys.

jQuery.Hotkeys plugin lets you easily add and remove handlers for
keyboard events anywhere in your code
supporting almost any key combination.
It takes one line of code to
bind/unbind a hot key combination.

Binding ‘Ctrl+c’

$(document).bind('keydown', 'ctrl+c', fn);
