Defining access keys

Adobe GoLive lets you define a unique access key for any form element on a page. An access key lets viewers focus on an element by pressing a modifier key and a dedicated alphanumeric key (Alt-S, for example, to activate the Submit button in a Microsoft Windows-based browser).

Legends, labels, text fields, password fields, text areas, Submit buttons, Reset buttons, check boxes, and radio buttons support access keys.

To define an access key:

1 Select the element you want to assign a key combination to.

2 In the Key text box of the Inspector, type any alphanumeric character.

3 Add a visual indication of the access key--for example, add a label or text that gives the key combination.

4 Repeat steps 1 through 3 for the next form element. Do not assign the same access key to two form elements.

5 Test the result in a browser that supports navigation via access keys, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 on a Windows platform.
