Access Keys

The 11th Keighley (Cullingworth) Scout Group website uses access keys (keyboard shortcuts) to assist site navigation without a mouse.  The use of these keys will depend on your browser.  For example users with Microsoft Internet Explorer for Windows need to click the access key while holding down the ALT key and follow this with the enter key.

Our access keys are normally highlighted on the visible page link by underlining the appropriate letter.  In addition some keys have a second, numerical, access key in line with UK Government recommendations.  The access keys are as follows:

0 or A - This page (Access key details)
1 or H - Home page.
C - Contacts page.
M - Sections, Meetings and Location page.
P - Our Picture Gallery.
S - Skip Navigation.
U - Our Uniform page.
V - Privacy policy.
W - What's On page.

Some popular browsers implement access keys as follows:

Internet Explorer: Windows: Alt+AccessKey followed by Enter
Internet Explorer Mac: Ctl+AccessKey
Firefox Windows: Alt+AccessKey or Shift+Alt+AccessKey on Version 2
Firefox Mac: Ctl+AccessKey
Opera Windows: Shift+Esc followed by AccessKey
Safari Mac: Ctl+AccessKey
