17.11.2 Access keys

Assigns an access key to A, AREA, BUTTON, INPUT, LABEL LEGEND and TEXTAREA.

Pressing an access key assigned to an element gives focus to the element. If the element is not displayed in the current viewable portion of the screen, the window shifts so the user can view the element. The action that occurs when an element receives focus depends on the element.

MS Windows, press and hold [alt] then the access key( shifted characters like "+" require the akward combination of [shift][alt][+] ).
Safari requires [ctrl] key in addition to the access key.
Firefox requires [alt]+[shift]

The following elements support the accesskey attribute:

This example assigns the access key "u" to a label associated with an INPUT control. Typing the access key gives focus to the label which in turn gives it to the associated control(i.e. the INPUT). The user may then enter text into the INPUT area.

        <FORM action="..." method=post>
	<LABEL for=fuser accesskey=u>
	User Name
	<INPUT name=user id=fuser>

In this example, we assign the access key "c" to a link defined by the A element. Typing this access key takes the user to another document ( Not in ie mearly positions cursor, works in firebird [quick as a bunny]!), in this case, a table of contents.
	<A accesskey=c
	    Table of Contents</A>
