[accesskey] Values are not Unique

Let’s see a caution: Are you building a very complex desktop application? So okay, using multiple access keys is understandable. But if this is not the case, make sure to edit the access key by following the facts below:

  1. Note that not all browsers support your access keys.
  2. The functions of the access keys may not be the same for every browser or device. This may cause confusion.
  3. Users who are not aware of access keys can run functions they do not want.

<a href="google.com" accesskey="g">Link to Google</a>
<a href="github.com" accesskey="h">Link to GitHub</a>

If the code with the yellow sign is changed, there will be no conflict.
