Re: Keyboard navigation in a web page

keyboard navigation through a page can be improved,,,"


Speaking as a designer, what I would like to see is full implementation of
the accesskey attribute BUT with a key combination to turn accesskeys on and
off. For example, if I implement accesskeys on a site, I would like the user
to be able to hit a key (say F12) to toggle the accesskeys. That way they
wouldn't override other keyboard shortcuts.

I would also like some method of indicating what the accesskey is for a
given link (or other element). Perhaps a toggle that added the accesskey
next to each link. For example, if the HOME link had accesskey H, hitting
the toggle key would add [H] next to the link. Or something like that.
