Access Keys

The main menu elements (i.e. Home, Young People/Parents... Professionals) use numeric access keys beginning with 1, e.g. if you want to quickly display the home page, use Alt+1 and if you want to view Professionals, press Alt+5.
Please note that some browsers and operating systems use other key combinations for HTML access keys. General guidelines are listed below:

  • Mac browsers use Ctrl key instead of Alt.
  • Konqueror (Linux) browser uses Ctrl key to highlight all the access keys available. Once you've pressed Ctrl, you can then press the actual access key.
  • Opera usually supports Shift-Esc instead of Alt.
    We apologise for any inconvenience Opera users may experience as the number keys have a built-in functionality in this browser so in order to make things work you need to press Shift-Esc, release it and quickly click the actual access key.
