To review, we press b to navigate to the next button.

The following are a series of buttons. Now, these buttons do not link to any other pages. They are only here for you to practice navigating forward and backward between buttons.

These are examples of a few buttons you may run into as you navigate your device.

Grouping Buttons

If you are on a webpage containing many buttons, there is a gesture to list all of the available buttons at once. Press JAWS key + control + b, and you will be able to use your up and down arrows to navigate through all the buttons. Then hit enter on the one you wish to select.

Final Practice

Use the keyboard command to list all buttons. Count how many buttons there are. Find the button labeled with that number. Press enter to move onto the next lesson.
