Hello all,

Is it required to give key command for links? eg messages (alt 4) If
yes, how to assign the short key commands?
also can anyone please share WCAG guidelines and success criterias?

Hi Karthik,

Having access keys for links or buttons is not a WCAG 2.0 requirement. If
you really want to have such access keys ensure that they do not conflict
with assistive technology, browser, operating systems short-cut commands.

The accesskey attribute helps to specify the command to any interactive
element on the page. For more information refer to W3 Schools accesskey
chapter. <http://www.w3schools.com/TAGs/att_global_accesskey.asp>;

Thanks & Regards
Rakesh
