Select+Web+Form+Dropdowns+from+Keyboard

Use the keyboard to select web page drop-down menus
from MacOSXHints.com One feature I like from Internet Explorer for Windows is that web forms are fully-accessable via the keyboard. For a long time, Safari and other Mac web browsers didn't let you select drop-down menus while navigating through a form by pressing the Tab key, so we had to resort to using the mouse for those, which I found fairly annoying. I'm not sure when this changed, but I've been keyboard-navigating through web forms in Safari for months now!

If you Tab through a web form (such as the one on the hint submission page) with Safari or another WebKit-enabled browser, and then hit the down-arrow key when the drop-down menu highlights, you can select all the options, and even jump to a selection by typing out the first few letters of what you want!
