Access Keys

Access keys are keyboard shortcuts that help users who have difficulty using pointing devices, such as a mouse.

I've chosen numeric access keys to minimize interference with browser shortcuts. Below is a description of the access keys
that I have used on this site.

  1. Home Page
  2. About Apple Pie.
  3. Porfolio of Websites
  4. Articles
  5. Contact Details
  6. Overview of all Web Design Services
  7. Portfolio/Music Websites
  8. Bed & Breakfast Websites
  9. Accessibility Statement and Access Key Information

How to Use the Access Keys:

PC

  • IE — press the "ALT" key + access key and then press the "ENTER" key to active the action.
  • Firefox 2.0 — "ALT" + "SHIFT" and access key.
  • Firefox 3.0 — "ALT" + "SHIFT" + access key (sometimes you need to hit "ENTER" and other times you don’t).
  • Opera — the user presses "SHIFT" + "ESC" followed by the access key (without "ALT"). Doing this will display the list of access keys over the current web page.

MAC

  • Firefox 2.0 — "CTRL" + access key.
  • Firefox 3.0 — "CTRL" + access key and an "ENTER" is required.
  • Opera — "SHIFT" + "ESC" followed by the access key (without "ALT"). Doing this will display the list of access keys over the current web page.
  • Safari — "CNTL" + access key.
