-
-An important design goal is for Chrome to be fully accessible via the keyboard.
-Many users with disabilities may be unable to use a mouse or other pointing
-device, and there are many scenarios where power users prefer keyboard
-shortcuts.
-
-The majority of users use a combination of the keyboard and mouse, and we don't
-think that full keyboard access should make things more cumbersome for users who
-don't need or want every control to be focusable. So, for example, we don't
-think that most toolbar controls should be part of the Tab traversal.
-
-On the other hand, we don't believe that there should be a separate
-"accessibility mode" that enables more keyboard access. We don't believe that
-users should be segregated; rather, we should strive to find a balance where
-most users will only use the keyboard shortcuts they choose to learn, while
-users who rely completely on their keyboard will find the interface easy to
-navigate without memorizing a separate shortcut for every single command.
-
-### Keyboard Navigation and Shortcuts
-
-Here are the keyboard shortcuts that help make Chrome accessible to users who
-need full keyboard access.
-
-First, there are keys to focus each of the toolbars:
-
-* **Shift+Alt+T**: Main Toolbar (contains Back, Forward, Reload, etc)
-* **Shift+Alt+B**: Bookmarks Toolbar
-
-In addition, pressing **F6** or **Shift+F6** now switches to the next pane, with
-the available panes in Chrome being:
-
-* The web content area (which displays the web page itself)
-
- Main Toolbar
-
- Bookmarks Toolbar
-
-Also, pressing **Alt** or **F10** focuses the Chromium menu button in the
-toolbar, since these keys are normally used to focus the menu bar in a typical
-Windows application.
-
-#### Toolbar Navigation
-
-While in a toolbar, you can press **Tab**, **Shift+Tab**, **Home** (move to
-first enabled control) and **End** (move to last enabled control) to navigate to
-different controls in the toolbar. You can also use the **Left Arrow** and
-**Right Arrow** keys, except notably when the Location Bar / Omnibox has focus,
-because then those keys are used for text editing. (This is the same behavior as
-in other Windows applications, like Microsoft Excel.)
-
-Controls can be activated using either **Space** or **Enter** (menu buttons also
-support **Down Arrow** to open menu, **Esc** to close menu). Many controls also
-have a context menu (a right-click menu), which can be activated using the
-**Context Menu** key on your keyboard, or by pressing **Shift+F10**.
-
-There is one aspect of toolbar keyboard navigation that is potentially
-confusing: the Location Bar is normally part of the Tab order, but having focus
-in the Location Bar doesn't necessarily mean that the entire toolbar is the
-active pane. In a sense, the Location Bar is a special control that is part of
-the tab order of several panes. To clarify:
-
-These keystrokes focus the Location Bar (but do not set focus to the Toolbar
-pane):
-
-* Tabbing to the Location Bar from the web content.
-* **Ctrl+L**
-* **Alt+D**
-
-These keystrokes set focus to the Toolbar pane:
-
-* **F6** (focuses the Location Bar)
-* **Alt+Shift+T** (focuses the leftmost enabled control of the Main
- Toolbar)
-* **Alt** (focuses the page menu)
-* **F10** (focuses the page menu)
-
-The reason for this is to create minimal confusion for users who do not need
-keyboard access. Users who primarily use the mouse are very unlikely to use
-**F6**, so it's unlikely they will ever end up focusing various controls in the
-toolbar by accident. On the other hand, users who rely on full keyboard access
-are used to using **F6** to switch between window panes (e.g. in Windows
-Explorer), so this should be a very easy shortcut to remember.
-
-[Chrome extensions](https://chrome.google.com/extensions) can install [Page
-Actions and Browser
-Actions](http://www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/answer.py?answer=154007) in
-the main toolbar. These are all fully accessible using these keystrokes. Don't
-forget to try the **Context Menu** key for Page Actions and Browser Actions.
-
-The following keys can be used to access the menus:
-
-* **Alt** or **F10 or Alt+F** puts focus on the Chromium menu button -
- this corresponds to the key most commonly used to focus the first
- menu in the menu bar in Windows applications.
-
-In addition, the following keys can be used to switch tabs, in addition to the
-shortcuts in the menus:
-
-* **Ctrl+1** through **Ctrl+8** switches to the tab at the specified
- position number on the tab strip.
-* **Ctrl+9** switches to the last tab.
-* **Ctrl+Shift+Tab** or **Ctrl+PgUp** switches to the previous tab.
-* **Ctrl+Tab** or **Ctrl+PgDown** switches to the next tab.
-* **Ctrl+W** or **Ctrl+F4** closes the current tab.
-* **ALT-F4** quits the application.
