Simulate a Keyboard shortcut using HTML/Javascript

Question

I have a windows application running which takes screenshot when I press "ALT+Z". I want to trigger the same action in HTML/JS; that is the HTML/JS should simulate/trigger a "ALT+Z" so that the windows application takes a screenshot.

Answer 1

Use the accesskey attribute:

<input type="button" accesskey="z" />

This will invoke the click when alt + z is pressed.
