Accesskeys: Keyboard accessibility has been added to many ATutor features. Pressing the semi-colon key repeatedly will cycle through all the landmarks, and once the desired landmark is announced continue reading from that point. Users of current browsers and assistive technologies that support WAI-ARIA landmarks can take advantage of this alternate means of navigating through the ATutor interface. Other bypass links include: "jump past table" so users can skip over various data table to quickly access content that may appear after the table "jump past codes", so users can skip over the emoticon codes near the bottom of message posting form in the Forums. The content anchor can also be accessed with an accesskey, so it is possible to jump to the top of the content area no matter where the cursor might be located on the screen. Press the Tab key once after a page has finished loading to advance to the first bypass link then press Enter to reposition the content to the top of your screen. ByPass Links: In the top left corner of ATutor is a hidden bypass link that allows assistive technology users to skip over the navigation elements and jump directly to an anchor at the top of the content being displayed.
