That ain't possible.

You can't trigger OS/Browser functions like keypresses from JavaScript.

If this were possible, imagine the problems it would cause by:

  • sites making you save stuff. (Ctrl+S -> Enter)
  • sites making you close things. (Alt+F4)
  • sites making you open new tabs. (Ctrl+T)
  • etc.

You can only simulate these keypresses within the page's JS.
