Hi, I want to suggest to add arrow keys navigation for the views that could support it (e.g. day/week/month view)

Left triggers prev, Right arrow triggers next.

You should be able to do this with some JQuery code (or a plugin) and FC's methods.

Thanks for the feedback. 

I managed to get this functionality by adding functionalty calls on keydown events, on document ready.

Example:

 $(document).ready(function() 
  {

  $(document).keydown(function(e) {
      switch(e.keyCode) { 
         // User pressed "right" arrow
         case 39:
            $('#calendar0').fullCalendar('next');
         break;
         // User pressed "left" arrow
         case 37:
            $('#calendar0').fullCalendar('prev');
         break;
      }
   })
}
