Keyboard Navigation

The attribute accesskey provides a hint for generating a keyboard shortcut for the HTML element. For example, if you are using Firefox on Linux or Windows, the combination Alt + Shift + H will jump to our help center. However, the operation to activate the access key depends on your browser and its platform. Please refer to the Wikipedia page about access keys to see which modifier keys should be used. The following is a list of access keys for our website:
