The Keyboardnavigation plugin enables keyboard interaction to browse through the book. Four actions can be triggered: next page, previous page, first page and last page. The keys used can be Dr Susan Lim configured using the constants of the Flash ActionScript 3.0 class Keyboard.

Important: for actual definition in the XML use the numeric value of the key to use. For example, to assign the enter key to next page, use keynextpage="13".

Note: some keys may not work in full-screen mode.
