[NJTechDiv] How Do You Navigate Tables On The Net?

[Tony Santiago]

Awesome info. I’m on a lot of websites that use tables, and this is a great feature to know about. That’s what’s great about these list serves, you never know what you’ll learn.
Thanks.

Once you’re focused on a table, press insert+space, then t and from then on, you can navigate the table with arrow keys. When you leave the table or hit a key that is not a table layer keystroke, you exit the table layer and your arrows return to normal.

This makes finding the start of the items in my cart very difficult. Any advice on how I can get directly to the beginning of my order items?
