In this tutorial I will show you how to replace button click event with keyboard shortcuts using JQuery. Previously, I used button click event I called the JavaScript function for generating the sitemap. Instead of the button event. Here, I m going to implement keyboard shortcuts.
This is asp.net MVC project. I have already registered jQuery in Layout page.
I have written code for keyboard event. CTRL+ G When these key is pressed I going
to call GenerateSitemap() function. The keycode 71 is for Letter 'G'.
Here, You can find the list of keycode value for the keyboard press.

jQuery Code:
<script type="text/javascript">$(document).keydown(function (e) {if (e.ctrlKey && e.keyCode == 77) {GenerateSubmitURLs();}});function GenerateSubmitURLs() {//Code here..}</script>
