Best cross-browser method to capture CTRL S with JQuery

0 votes
My users would like to be able to hit Ctrl+S to save a form. Is there a good cross-browser way of capturing the Ctrl+S key combination and submit my form?

App is built on Drupal, so jQuery is available.

$(window).keypress(function(event) {
     if (!(event.which == 115 && event.ctrlKey) && !(event.which == 19)) return true;
     alert("Ctrl-S pressed");
     event.preventDefault();
     return false;
 });

Keycodes can vary from browser to browser, so you may need to look for more than  115.
