To view other parts of a page:
• Use the arrow keys or scroll bars to scroll the page up, down, left and
right.
The parts of a page which enable you to perform actions are called hot areas.
These include items such as:
• The location line of the Internet program browser.
• Links in text, which allow you to jump to and view other pages. These are
underlined.
• Images, with or without links. When you select an image which also
contains a link, the web address of the page it is linked to will be displayed
as an information message.
• Entry boxes and buttons which allow you to enter and select information
on a page. (This kind of item is known as a ‘form control’.)
To select a link, image or other item on a page (e.g. a form control):
• Tap on it once, or
• Tap in the browser window, then use the Tab key to highlight each
selectable area of the screen in turn. To move backwards through the order,
hold down Shift and press Tab.
Once you have selected the item on the screen you want, you can perform the
following actions:
If you have highlighted a link:
• Press Enter or tap on the link again to open the page.
If you have highlighted an image containing a link:
• Press Enter or tap on the link again to open the page.
Pages can also include ‘frames’, where different frames on a web page are
separated by borders. When you select a frame, its scroll bar (if necessary)
will become visible, and you can then use the Tab key to select its hot areas in
turn.
To select a frame:
• Tap in the frame, or use Ctrl+Tab on the keyboard to select each frame in
turn.
For more information on frames, see “Viewing Frames”.
