Accesskeys
Accesskeys are keyboard shortcuts that allow you to jump to specific areas of a website or webpage without using your mouse. We use numeric accesskeys:
- Homepage
- Skip to content
- Contact us
- Site search
- A-Z Index
- Accessibility
- Skip to the first field in a webform
The usual way to use accesskeys is to press and hold the "ALT" key plus the "Accesskey" (for Windows/PC) or "CTRL" plus the "Accesskey" (for Mac). Some browsers do work differently.
Internet Explorer
Version 5 +: "ALT" + "Accesskey" + "Enter". For example, "ALT" + "1" highlights the "Home" link. Select "ENTER" to go to the Homepage
Version 4: "ALT" + "Accesskey". For example, "ALT" + "3" will take you to the contact page.
Netscape
Version 7 +: "ALT" + "Accesskey".
Netscape 6 and earlier do not support accesskeys.
Firefox 2.0
"ALT"+ "SHIFT" + "Accesskey". For example, "ALT" + "SHIFT" + "4" will place the cursor in the site search box.
Opera
Press "SHIFT" + "ESC" then release both keys and select the "Accesskey". For example, "SHIFT" + "ESC", release both keys and select "5" to go to the A-Z Index.
Safari
"CTRL" + "Accesskey".
