Access Keys

Access keys are ways to navigate through the site without the use of the mouse. Many people are used to clicking "Ctrl+S" on a Microsoft Word document and having it automatically save. That's what access keys are like. They allow you to use the keyboard instead of clicking on links. Please note that not all links are made into access keys.

Press the Access Key 1 to access the Index page
Press the Access Key 2 to access the Me section
Press the Access Key 3 to access the Visitor section
Press the Access Key 4 to access the Domain section
Press the Access Key 5 to access the Contact section
Press the Access Key A to access this page, the Accessibility page
Press the Access Key C to access the Credit page
Press the Access Key E to access the Report an Error page
Press the Access Key T to return to the top of any page

These keys will work in any page in Ink Dreamer. Once you leave this site, none of the keys will work anymore. For your benefit, all the sections in the navigation are in numerical order.

If you use Mozilla FireFox 1.5 and below or Netscape/Gecko, press ALT then the access key
If you use Mozilla FireFox 2.0 or higher, press down ALT, SHIFT, then the access key at the same time
If you use Internet Explorer, press ALT, the access key, then ENTER
If you use a Mac, press CTRL then the access key
If you use Opera 9, press SHIFT, ESCAPE, (release your keys) then the access key.

Obviously, access keys won't work in all browsers. These are the ones I know of. If you know of any more, please notify me.

Sidebar

The sidebar changes with every section to list the subpages of that section. To return to the main page of any section, use either the main navigation or click on the section name where it says "You're browsing the ____ section".
