Technique 1: Sequential Method In the sequential method, every user interface event handler becomes a tab stop in the sequential movement of focus to elements, for example with the TAB key. As each event handler is given focus the user is alerted to which event handler has been given focus. The user could then activate the event handler, for example with the ENTER key. An element that is a link and also has a onMouseOver and onMouseOut event handlers defined, would have 3 tab stops: one for the link and two for the event handlers. Technique 2: Query Method In the query method, the user moves the focus to an enabled element and then the user can query the event handlers associated with element. This could be done using the TAB key to move focus and a context sensitive menu with an event handler option could be used to provide a list of available event handlers (Shift-F10 in Windows). Each enabled event handler would be available from the list. An event handler could be executed by selecting from the menu, for example with the ENTER key.
