Answer 1

Let me give you a higher level logic

1. Create datatable with checkboxes. Make sure you generate id's for those checkboxes and corresponding rows.

2. On check box click, you can find the id of the row easily. Keep saving them in an array as you keep clicking.

3. If you want to select all at once, give a specific id for select all checkbox and on click of that checkbox, loop through your data table and grab all the rows and put them in an array.

4. Once you have the logic for onClick, you can easily add javascript keyboard events.

I apologize for not putting some code together, it's lot of code to write but simple enough.
