- Access keys
Categories
If you are unable to use a pointing device such as a mouse, access keys will enable you to link to all the main areas of this website.
In most web browsers, the user does this by pressing Alt (on PC) or Ctrl (on Mac) simultaneously with the appropriate character on the keyboard. In Opera, the user presses ⇑ Shift+Esc followed by the access key (without Alt). In Mozilla Firefox 2.0 the access key keyboard combination has changed to Alt + ⇑ Shift (still configurable via about:config), while in Amaya, the preferences allow the user the option of choosing Ctrl or Alt. In Konqueror on Linux, the Ctrl key is pressed and released, and then the access key is pressed.
Whilst Mozilla and Firefox will execute the corresponding links immediately on the press of the access key, IE will just focus on the link and require ↵ Enter to be pressed in order to activate the link.
