Assigning a hotkey that mimicks link click

[tunghuynh]

I have an idea which I would like to know if it's possible to achieve using JSF 2.0 and Richfaces 4.

I want to create a hotkey that is mimicks the action of clicking on a link.

The code below hopefully illustrates this idea, it's not a working piece of code.

<rich:dataTable>

          <rich:column>

                                        <f:facet name="header">

                                                  <h:outputText value="CNI No." />

                                        </f:facet>

                                        <a4j:commandLink  id='link-#{iterator.index+1}' oncomplete="#{rich:component('popup')}.show()" execute="@this"/>

                   <rich:hotkey onmousedown="${link-#{iterator.index+1}.click()"  />

                    </rich:column>

<rich:dataTable>

I can't seem to get it to work. Any suggestions?

thanks,
