Keyboard Navigation
To enable keyboard navigation of the Pager set the Navigatable() option to true.
For a complete example, refer to the demo on using the keyboard navigation of the Pager.
The Pager supports its keyboard navigation functionality through the Navigatable() method. When enabled, you can initially change the active page by using the PageUp and PageDown keys.
Alternatively, you can press Enter and navigate through the different elements of the pager via Tab and Shift+Tab.
The following example demonstrates how to enable the keyboard navigation in the Pager.
@(Html.Kendo().Pager()
.Name("pager")
/* Other configuration. */
.Navigatable(true)
)
The table below lists the available key combinations supported by the Pager.
