Keyboard Changes in Internet Explorer 7 Beta 3
Published July 1st, 2006 in All Categories, Internet Explorer, Internet Explorer 7
n an earlier post, Aaron Sauve provided The Keyboard Lover’s Guide to IE. The IE community has
given us quality feedback on our keyboard model during the beta cycle, and in beta 3, we have tried to bring more predictability and consistency with earlier IE versions in response to this feedback. In beta 3, we have made some changes in hotkey assignments, added some new hotkeys, and changed keyboard behavior on web pages back to match earlier versions of the browser in most cases.
Bringing Back Menu Hotkeys
In beta 3, we’ve reverted hotkeys so that the hotkeys used to access menus remain the same from previous versions of IE. Specifically, this means that Alt+a will once again access the classic favorites menu, Alt+t the tools menu and Alt+h the help menu.
New Hotkeys
We’ve added several new hotkeys in this beta. IEBlog : Keyboard Changes in Beta 3
