Description Jurian Sluiman 2010-03-02 13:21:49 UTC

Version:           0.3.94 (using KDE 4.4.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Accesskeys are a common method to assign focus on an element (http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#adef-accesskey). Because Arora has support for accesskeys I think it should be possible with the current Webkit version (or am I wrong).

Only one usability issue: with e.g. Arora (but also Konqueror) accesskeys are toggled by keypress. So Ctrl enables accesskeys (yellow blocks are visible), press Ctrl again and they disappear. A better method (like Firefox and Chrome handles it) is on keydown. Press Ctrl and accesskeys are enabled. On keyup the accesskeys disappear.
