It is possible to trigger a keyboard shortcut or action with a click?

in Using jQuery • 4 years ago

The spacebar key currently scrolls any browser page down if you hit it. It is possible to bind or trigger the spacebar on a click?

$("body").on("click", function(){

var e = jQuery.Event("keydown");

e.which = 32;
$(this).trigger(e);

});

No. The browser handles that space before javaScript has a chance to see it.

You can detect or cause a scroll without using a space.

Is there another work around? I'm not interest in the .scroll() but the actual pressing of the spacebar.

I just found I can prevent/catch it with…

window.addEventListener('keydown', function(e) {

if(e.keyCode == 32 && e.target == document.body) {

e.preventDefault(); console.log(e)

}

});

I doubt I could trigger it. Try a native event on window instead of body.
