Nick, I have read other threads in HWG lists on this topic, and almost every key combination suggested for standard web site actions was, according to someone, used in their browser for something useful. I wrote an article on it too - and got no useful feedback. The only suggestion I have seen is to use numbers - but these aren't as easy to remember as letters. And anyway, other posts here appear to rule those out. As you say, part of the problem is that there is no standard for web use - and no standard for web structure or content, either. We all learn different key combinations for most applications (apart from the really common things like file save, file print, copy, cut, paste etc.) - so perhaps what is needed is some accepted convention for user agents. Chances of that - think snowballs and hell ;-) Lois Wakeman ------------------------------------------------------ http://lois.co.uk http://siteusability.com http://communicationarts.co.uk ------------------------------------------------------
