In pure HTML you would use the "accesskey" and "tabindex" attributes of form
elements to allow simplistic keyboard management of forms.  I'm not sure
what's available in XFORMs yet, but I have to assume it's more advanced.

Using script you can take things to the next level.  The event bubbling
model in IE makes a lot of this stuff insanely simple.

I'm not sure sure why you would want to kill mouse applications, but again
using the event bubbling model (IE only, I beleive) you can assign all of
the mouse action handlers at the body level to "return void" or somesuch -
the event taking place anywhere on the page will bubble up to the body and
get handled there.

Subject: Entire keyboard-based CF application

Hi

I'm looking for how to develop an entire CF application
keyboard-based. Gmail haves funcionalities like that. What's the
secret? JS? Any example? How to kill mouse applications??? ;-)
