Examples

This example uses the -ms-accelerator attribute in a u element to specify that the N in the label element is a keyboard shortcut. When the option to “Hide keyboard navigation indicators until I use the Alt key” is enabled in the user’s Display Properties, the N is not underlined until the user presses the ALT key. When ALT+N is pressed, the input element that defines an accessKey attribute value of ‘N’ receives the focus.

<LABEL FOR="oName"><U STYLE="ACCELERATOR:true">N</U>ame: </LABEL>
<INPUT TYPE="text"
    ID="oName"
    SIZE="25"
    ACCESSKEY="N"
    VALUE="Your name here">
