HTML offers the accesskey attribute to specify a shortcut key to activate or bring focus to an element. Adding an accesskey attribute can make navigation more efficient for keyboard-only users.

HTML5 allows this attribute to be used on any element, but it's particularly useful when it's used with interactive ones. This includes links, buttons, and form controls.

Here's an example:

<button accesskey="b">Important Button</button>

--instructions--

Camper Cat wants the links around the two blog article titles to have keyboard shortcuts so his site's users can quickly navigate to the full story. Add an accesskey attribute to both links and set the first one to g (for Garfield) and the second one to c (for Chuck Norris).

--hints--

Your code should add an accesskey attribute to the a tag with the id of first.

assert($('#first').attr('accesskey'));

Your code should add an accesskey attribute to the a tag with the id of second.

assert($('#second').attr('accesskey'));

Your code should set the accesskey attribute on the a tag with the id of first to g. Note that case matters.

assert($('#first').attr('accesskey') == 'g');

Your code should set the accesskey attribute on the a tag with the id of second to c. Note that case matters.

assert($('#second').attr('accesskey') == 'c');
