One approach is to do something like spreadsheets do in practice. If there is space to show the content, do so, but also have a dedicated region that shows the current content, making each cell focusable. That's not ideal, since the things aren't actionable, but otherwise keyboard users won't be able to get to them, and if you try to make your own navigation thing to keep the focus clean you need people to learn one for each website which is also a bad approach. A modification on that is essentially to "zoom" the current cell - something like moving through a non-animated carousel, or using slide tools that allow for 2-dimensional rather than purely linear navigation. cheers Chaals -- Using Opera's mail client: http://www.opera.com/mail/
