Web accessibility using access keys.

[Brian]

Hi -
Can anyone help me with this. I need to provide on a website the ability for
users to access certain pages such as home page, search page, sitemap etc.,
using only keyboard features. I have not so far discovered how to do this,
but have seen it done on other sites.

I would appreciate any help on this.
Thanks in advance,
Brian.

It's automatic if you've used standard html for links.
Try navigating your site using Tab and / or Tab+Shift to move to a link and then press Enter to
open the link.
