<p><span class="seoSummary"><strong>HTML элемент ввода с клавиатуры</strong> (<strong><code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code></strong>) указывает на то, что текст внутри элемента  описывает пользовательский ввод с клавиатуры, голосовой ввод или ввод с использованием любого другого типа устройств ввода текста.</span> По общему соглашению, {{Glossary("user agent")}} использует моноширинный шрифт для отображения содержимого элемента <code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code> по умолчанию, хотя это и не указывается HTML стандартом явно.</p>

<p><code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code> можно использовать в различных комбинациях с  {{HTMLElement("samp")}} (Sample Output) элементом для отображения различных форм ввода с клавиатуры или ввода, базирующегося на визуальных сигналах.</p>

<h2 id="Usage_notes">Usage notes</h2>

<p>Other elements can be used in tandem with <code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code> to represent more specific scenarios:</p>

<ul>
 <li>Nesting a <code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code> element within another <code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code> element represents an actual key or other unit of input as a portion of a larger input. See {{anch("Representing keystrokes within an input")}} below.</li>
 <li>Nesting a <code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code> element inside a {{HTMLElement("samp")}} element represents input that has been echoed back to the user by the system. See {{anch("Echoed input")}}, below, for an example.</li>
 <li>Nesting a <code>&lt;samp&gt;</code> element<em> </em>inside a <code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code> element, on the other hand, represents input which is based on text presented by the system, such as the names of menus and menu items, or the names of buttons displayed on the screen. See the example under {{anch("Representing onscreen input options")}} below.</li>
</ul>

<div class="note">
<p>You can define a custom style to override the browser's default font selection for the <code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code> element, although the user's preferences may potentially override your CSS.</p>
</div>

<h2 id="Examples">Examples</h2>

<h3 id="Basic_example">Basic example</h3>

<pre class="brush: html">&lt;p&gt;Use the command &lt;kbd&gt;help mycommand&lt;/kbd&gt; to view documentation
for the command "mycommand".&lt;/p&gt;
</pre>

<h4 id="Result">Result</h4>

<p>{{ EmbedLiveSample('Basic_example', 350, 80) }}</p>

<h3 id="Representing_keystrokes_within_an_input">Representing keystrokes within an input</h3>

<p>To describe an input comprised of multiple keystrokes, you can nest multiple <code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code> elements, with an outer <code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code> element representing the overall input and each individual keystroke or component of the input enclosed within its own <code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code>.</p>

<h4 id="Unstyled">Unstyled</h4>

<p>First, let's look at what this looks like as just plain HTML.</p>

<h5 id="HTML">HTML</h5>

<pre class="brush: html">&lt;p&gt;You can also create a new document using the keyboard shortcut
&lt;kbd&gt;&lt;kbd&gt;Ctrl&lt;/kbd&gt;+&lt;kbd&gt;N&lt;/kbd&gt;&lt;/kbd&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

<p>This wraps the entire key sequence in an outer <code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code> element, then each individual key within its own, in order to denote the components of the sequence.</p>

<h5 id="Result_2">Result</h5>

<p>The output looks like this without a style sheet applied:</p>

<p>{{EmbedLiveSample("Unstyled", 650, 80)}}</p>

<h4 id="With_custom_styles">With custom styles</h4>

<p>We can make more sense of this by adding some CSS:</p>

<h5 id="CSS">CSS</h5>

<p>We add new new style for <code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code> elements, <code>"key"</code>, which we can apply when rendering keyboard keys:</p>

<pre class="brush: css">kbd.key {
  border-radius: 3px;
  padding: 1px 2px 0;
  border: 1px solid black;
}</pre>

<h5 id="HTML_2">HTML</h5>

<p>Then we update the HTML to use this class on the keys in the output to be presented:</p>

<pre class="brush: html">&lt;p&gt;You can also create a new document by pressing
&lt;kbd&gt;&lt;kbd class="key"&gt;Ctrl&lt;/kbd&gt;+&lt;kbd class="key"&gt;N&lt;/kbd&gt;&lt;/kbd&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

<h5 id="Result_3">Result</h5>

<p>The result is just what we want!</p>

<p>{{EmbedLiveSample("With_custom_styles", 650, 80)}}</p>

<h3 id="Echoed_input">Echoed input</h3>

<p>Nesting a <code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code> element inside a {{HTMLElement("samp")}} element represents input that has been echoed back to the user by the system.</p>

<pre class="brush: html">&lt;p&gt;If a syntax error occurs, the tool will output the initial
command you typed for your review:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
  &lt;samp&gt;&lt;kbd&gt;custom-git ad my-new-file.cpp&lt;/kbd&gt;&lt;/samp&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;</pre>

<p>The result looks like this:</p>

<p>{{EmbedLiveSample("Echoed_input", 650, 100)}}</p>

<h3 id="Representing_onscreen_input_options">Representing onscreen input options</h3>

<p>Nesting a <code>&lt;samp&gt;</code> element<em> </em>inside a <code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code> element represents input which is based on text presented by the system, such as the names of menus and menu items, or the names of buttons displayed on the screen.</p>

<p>For example, you can explain how to choose the "New Document" option in the "File" menu using HTML that looks like this:</p>

<pre class="brush: html">&lt;p&gt;To create a new file, choose the menu option
&lt;kbd&gt;&lt;kbd&gt;&lt;samp&gt;File&lt;/samp&gt;&lt;/kbd&gt;⇒&lt;kbd&gt;&lt;samp&gt;New
Document&lt;/samp&gt;&lt;/kbd&gt;&lt;/kbd&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Don't forget to click the &lt;kbd&gt;&lt;samp&gt;OK&lt;/samp&gt;&lt;/kbd&gt; button
to confirm once you've entered the name of the new file.&lt;/p&gt;</pre>

<p>This does some interesting nesting. For the menu option description, the entire input is enclosed in a <code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code> element. Then, inside that, both the menu and menu item names are  contained within both <code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code> and <code>&lt;samp&gt;</code>, indicating an input which is selected from a screen widget.</p>

<p>Similarly, the representation of the keyboard shortcut is done by enclosing the entire keyboard shortcut text inside <code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code>, but by also wrapping each key in its own <code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code> element.</p>

<p>You don't need to do all this wrapping; you can choose to simplify it by leaving out the external <code>&lt;kbd&gt;</code> element. In other words, simplifying this to just <code>&lt;kbd&gt;Ctrl&lt;/kbd&gt;+&lt;kbd&gt;N&lt;/kbd&gt;</code> would be perfectly valid.</p>

<p>Depending on your style sheet , though, you may find it useful to do this kind of nesting.</p>

<p>The output from this HTML looks like this:</p>

<p>{{EmbedLiveSample("Representing_onscreen_input_options", 650, 120)}}</p>
