Hello,
I have a HTML image control in one of my page. On click of this it opens upa popup (Date Picker Popup). Is it possible to give one Hot Key/Activation Key so that on press of Key (s) opens up the popup.

This is very very important and any help is highly appreciated.

You can use javascript but if the client has javascript disabled this won't work but if you keep your image on click then it's kind of like a fail safe. I don't know what key you want to use but i'll use the enter/return key.

Code:

document.onkeyup = KeyPress;
function KeyPress(e)
 {
  var KeyID = (window.event) ? event.keyCode : e.keyCode;
  switch(KeyID)
   {
    case 13: 
     window.open('your popup link here');
     break;    
    case 10:
     window.open('your popup link here');
     break;
   }
 }

I have two cases here because i'm checking for the enter/return key (two different keys) You can use any keycode there you want. Hope this at least helps you and gets you going in the right direction.
