    I need to know 2 keyboard shortcuts


    1. Please look at the attachment. I don't know what you call this long box on a web page, with small boxes to select each page you want. Is there a keyboard method to navigate to the different pages here, without using the mouse?

    2. In IE or Firefox when a number of tabs are open, how can I switch between pages using the keyboard?

    3. If I close one tab accidentally, can I recover it?

    Thank you,

    Reopen Last Closed Tab


    On Firefox, "Ctrl + Shift +T" should reopen the last tab that was closed.

    You can keep using that shortcut until there are no more closed tabs to reopen. :)

    Yes, using the 'tab key and enter' works. By using Ctrl+Enter I can open the page in a separate tab too. That way, the mouse curser stays in the page box of the first page, from which I can open more pages when I am through with the open page.

    Could you also please tell me, if I have a number of tabs on my screen: 1. How can I navigate among them from the keyboard? 2. How can I close a tab from the keyboard? 3. How do I open a new tab (blank), from the key board?

    Thank you,

    Ctrl+Tab will shift through open tabs,
    Alt+Tab will also show and shift through open tabs
    Ctrl+T will open a new tab

    Is there a place, here or elsewhere, where I can find out more keyboard shortcuts?
