Refresh Page by pressing keys

Another option is to establish a key binding to the Action you've defined from the root component's InputMap and ActionMap.

public static void establishKeyBinding(JComponent c, AbstractAction a) {

Object o = a.getValue(Action.ACCELERATOR_KEY);

if (o != null && o instanceof KeyStroke) {

establishKeyBinding(c, a, (KeyStroke) o);

}

if (a.getAltAccelerators() != null) {

for (KeyStroke k : a.getAltAccelerators()) {

establishKeyBinding(c, a, k);

}

}

}

public static void establishKeyBinding(JComponent c, Action a, KeyStroke key) {

if (key != null) {

InputMap im = c.getInputMap(JComponent.WHEN_IN_FOCUSED_WINDOW);

ActionMap am = c.getActionMap();

im.put(key, a.getValue(Action.NAME));

am.put(a.getValue(Action.NAME), a);

}

}

You'd use this like (inside the constructor for your JPanel or whatever):

Utils.establishKeyBinding(this, RefreshAction);
