On the other hand, it has also been my experience that most
people don't realize that they can move backwards through these
same Controls by holding down the Shift key while pressing the
Tab button.
Notice that I said "many people" have figured it out. I often see
people filling in a form by clicking on the first field with the
mouse, typing with the keyboard, reaching for the mouse and
selecting the next field, then back to the keyboard to fill in
that field, reaching for the mouse again to click the next field.
On and on till the form has been completed.
Using the Tab key to navigate these controls is a much more
efficient method. If you see someone doing this 'keyboard-mouse
shuffle', please do them a favour and tell them about the Tab
key.
share it with your friends and associates?
