Acces key script

    Hi,

    I received a script for making my own acces keys. It works fine BUT it requires the visitor to press only 1 key. This is not handy.. esspecially on a page were you are filling out a form or using a search engine. I want a Key combination of 2 keys. For instance CTRL + y (it doesn't have to be ctrl but that's what I had in mind). Could someone look at the script, and maybe help me by making some ajustments?

    This is the script:

    <body onkeypress="if ((document.getElementById)&&(!document.all)){go_dest(event.which)}">

    <script type="text/javascript">
    keys="hyg"
    dest=["http://www.htmlforums.com","http://www.yahoo.com",
    "http://www.google.com"]
    if (document.layers)
    document.captureEvents(Event.KEYPRESS)
    function go_dest(e){
    for (i = 0; i < dest.length; i++){
    if (document.layers){
    if (e.which==keys.charCodeAt(i))
    window.location=dest
    }
    else if (document.all){
    if (event.keyCode==keys.charCodeAt(i))
    window.location=dest
    }
    else if ((document.getElementById)&&(!document.all)){
    if (e==keys.charCodeAt(i))
    window.location=dest
    }
    }
    }

    document.onkeypress=go_dest
    </script>

    </body>

    I think javascript can only detect 1 key press at a time.

    You can do something like

    
if (e.modifier().ctrl || e.modifier().meta) 
{
      if (e.key().string == 'KEY_Y') 
     {
     }
}
    Code (markup):
