That's not how I'd envision the use. The Microsoft reference for the slider has the basics, as does the IBM/JFC reference. We do most of this with the Flex slider http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnwue/html/ch08c.asp http://www-03.ibm.com/able/guidelines/java/jfckeys95.html Basically, once the slider gains focus, you then use keys to control the slider position. The tab key moves the focus away from the slider. Here's the shortcuts I'd recommend: Right arrow and up arrow - increment slider (using right and up allows the slider to be vertical or horizontal with no impact on users) Left arrow and down arrow - decrement slider Ctrl+up and Ctrl+right - large increment Ctrl+down and ctrl+left - large decrement Home/end - lowest and highest slider positions Hope this helps, AWK Andrew Kirkpatrick Corporate Accessibility Engineering Lead Adobe Systems [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
