Access keys are designed to allow easier and faster access to particular
items on a web page. As such we use them to provide access to the main menu
items of the site as well as quick access to the search feature and printable
layout.
The following list replicates the main menu items. The number or letter
indicated in brackets after the link is the appropriate acess key for that
item.
The technique to using access keys varies depending on your platform and
browser. The common techniques are shown below were KEY would be replaced with
the appropriate access key:
- Windows & IE: Press Alt + KEY, then hit enter.
