Is it possible to set a shortcut with js or jquery?

Question

When I press ctrl + right arrow,

I want the following code to run:

alert ('ctr | + right');

I tried to implement it using js logic, but it was difficult.

Thanks for letting me know

my code

$(function() {
    $('body').keydown(function(e) {
       if(e.ctrlKey && e.which == 78 ){
            alert('ctrㅣ + n');
       }
    });
});

It was a conflict with the chrome shortcut. Thanks to those who answered I solved the problem Thanks for the hint.

this code is work 39 is right direction key

$(function() {
  $('body').keyup(function(e) {
    if (e.ctrlKey && e.which === 39) {
      alert('ctrㅣ + n');
    }
  });
});

If you show the javascript code you tried, it will be easier for people to show you where you went wrong. — ASGM, Jan 05 '20 at 13:01
If you've tried to implement it already, could you post the code you've got? This will give people something to work on and help you. — Run_Script, Jan 05 '20 at 13:02

No way to override Ctrl + N in Chrome since it opens a new window and can no longer be intercepted by the client side JavaScript in the web page. — Ahed Kabalan, Jan 05 '20 at 13:13

try this:

$(function() {
  $('body').keydown(function(e) {
    if (e.ctrlKey && e.which === 69) {
      e.preventDefault();
      alert('ctrㅣ + n');
    }
  });
});

Except from `e.preventDefault();` how is your answer different from thet answers that has already been posted. – Carsten Løvbo Andersen Jan 05 '20 at 13:22

that's it...e.preventDefault()... it tries to stop the default browser action, so the other piece of code can run...that's the solution! – Nengak dakup Jan 05 '20 at 13:25

Replace 78 with 69. Also in major browser Ctrl+N is shortcut for creating new document

$(function() {
  $('body').keydown(function(e) {
    if (e.ctrlKey && e.which === 69) {
      alert('ctrㅣ + n');
    }
  });
});

Looks like you solved your problem - also want to mention if you are able to add an additional dependency, mousetrap js is really easy to use for this type of functionality. https://github.com/ccampbell/mousetrap – Jeff Tsui Jan 05 '20 at 13:35
