I am redesigning my website and I began implementing the accesskeys, using numbers instead of letters, to avoid conflicts as described here:
Accesskeys and Reserved Keystroke Combinations http://www.wats.ca/resources/accesskeysandkeystrokes/38
But later I discovered that using numbers for accesskeys is not the solution:
More reasons why we don't use accesskeys (accesskeyconflicts) http://www.wats.ca/articles/accesskeyconflicts/37
And after all, I was confronted with the solution below:
Link Relationships as an Alternative to Accesskeys http://www.wats.ca/articles/accesskeyalternatives/52
But I am still not satisfied.
Therefore, I still want to use them.
So while I would like to improve my Access Keys functionality, I would like to ask here, what do you think about this code example?
Code:
<a href="http://www.webnauts.net/index1.html" accesskey="1" onFocus="window.satus='Webnauts (accesskey = 1)'; return true" onBlur="window.satus=''; return true" onMouseOver="window.satus='Webnauts (access key = 1)'; return true" onMouseOut="window.satus=''; return true">

Your opinion or comments would be warmly appreciated.
