Setting Your Own Accesskeys with JavaScript

I’ve written an article which is published on Think Vitamin about the thorny subject of accesskeys. Love ‘em or loathe ‘em, they can be useful to some people, but not necessarily when they are forced on people. In the article I demonstrate how JavaScript and the DOM can be used to set and recall chosen accesskeys, but all done unobtrusively and with an evil factor of zero.

Read Setting & Retrieving Accesskeys with JavaScript and DOM on Think Vitamin, and please do add a comment if you have some suggestions for improvements on this idea
