Accessibility for Mac Users - 3/20/2006 17:03:55
A modest site built and run by a visually-impaired person. There are some good links and info for web developers who are interested.

Thanks Spit
Do you happen to know offhand how Mac users navigate a site with the keyboard - I assumed incorrectly that it was just using the tab button like PC users but of course it isn't - I seem to remember reading somewhere that they can tweak a setting on their Mac to do this but I'm not sure what the "standard" method is or indeed if there is one.
Edit: I've found where users can create their own settings for keyboard navigation in OSX but still not sure what the default behaviour is (based on the perhaps false assumption that people don't bother to change the defaults).

Ah I see (lie) ok - I did read somewhere that Mac users can use their arrow keys to navigate around the page once a certain setting has been set in the preference area so that might be what that's about.
It took me ages to figure out the Mac version of CTRL + C and CTRL + V so I was wondering if there was some cunning default behaviour buried behind another key combo that I hadn't figured out yet - 'parently not.
