Hi'all, The next version (13) of my tab/frame/keyboard navigation patch is ready (see bottom of this message for download instructions). Keyboard navigation has grown up, it is more or less complete now. There have been many internal changes, leading to a much more robust implementation. Links are now highlighted in a distinct way, with a dashed inverse frame around highlighted text. Link navigation should now be reliable in any direction (up, down, left, right). Scrolling movements are minimized, the code starts looking for links in the currently visible part of the document. The Tab/Shift-Tab keys now really work as advertised, they can also be used to move focus between frames. If something doesn't work they way it should (or the way you *think* it should), I want to know! For more info on keyboard navigation, see the doc/Keyboard_Navigation.txt document (after applying the patch, naturally...). More information on tabs can be found in doc/Browser_Tabs.txt, for frames see doc/Browser_Frames.txt. The mailing list archives are also a good place to look for answers to questions relating to this patch.
