Hi

How do I create contol keys on my web page that will enable user to go to pages on key stroke rather than using the mouse.

This is to raise standard of page to AAA accessibility.


Cheers for your time

Steve

I'm pretty sure there's a way in javascript to do this. I did it once a long time ago so i couldnt remember the code

HTML Code:
<a href="index.html" accesskey="h">Home</a>
<a href="about.html" accesskey="a">About Us</a>
etc, etc

Just decide which key you want to use and put

HTML Code:
accesskey="whateverkeyyouwant"
in your <a> tag

this might be worth looking at as well http://www.clagnut.com/blog/193/

don't forget though that some keys are reserved for OS use in browsers, and these vary between browsers and operating systems. nmbers are possibly the safest bet
