The SOSSI website uses keyboard shortcuts for quick keyboard access to a link or form control without needing to use the mouse or tab repeatedly.  This speeds up the user's interaction with the page.  This standard is consistent with recommendations of the W3C Techniques for Web Content Accessibility Guidelines and the Center for Applied Special Technology.

We use the below hot key HTML coding to set standard keyboard shortcut properties into our web pages.  If you press ALT -#Command (Windows) or Command-#Command (Macintosh), then enter, at any time on the page, you will follow the link as if you had clicked it.

• ALT #4 Search Page
• ALT #5 Frequently Asked Questions FAQ
