Description | Use the mnemonic property to provide a keyboard substitute for clicking a button on Windows systems. The mnemonic is any number between 1 and the number of characters in the button's name. The character at that position is underlined, and pressing the Alt key with that character sends a mouseUp message to the button. If the number is zero, the button does not have an Alt key equivalent. This property has no effect on Mac OS or Unix systems. | ||||||
