Easily handle keyboard click events on non semantic button elements.

This is a fork from the blog post entitled "Ridiculously easy trick for keyboard accessibility" by Karl Groves.

The script weighs in at 20 bytes gzipped and has no dependencies.

Install with Bower:

bower install --save a11yclick

Add a script tag at the bottom of the page, before your application logic.

<script src="a11yclick.js"></script>
<script src="app.js"></script>

Wrap the event logic with a conditional statement, checking the return value of the a11yclick() function. Make sure to pass in the event object.

$('#fake-button').on('click keydown', function(event) {
    if (a11yClick(event)) {
        // Event logic
    }
});
