Sorry, thinking about it, I should really have said "form controls"
(buttons, inputs, select boxes, checkboxes) to be clear. Widgets is a
more general term that could potentially include hyperlinks. See:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Widget_(computing)
Safari Preferences calls widgets (including links) "items", which isn't
a particular helpful word to use. There are lots of "items" on a web
page that you can't tab to, such as headings, paragraphs, phrase
elements etc.

Subject: Re: links list
If you've configured Safari to move between both links and widgets
with the Tab key in Preferences, then pressing Option Tab will move
you to the first form widget on the page. (If you haven't configured
Safari that way, then the function of the keys is reversed I think.)
In most cases the first form widget on a page will be an input field,
though in a few cases it might be a button.

Hey guys,
Is there a links list where you can bring up the listing of links in
a web page?
This would be really helpful to be able to get to links quickly.
Also, is there any way to get to the firstinput form? In other
words, say you need to enter something in a form, any way to get to
that quickly?
Thanks,
Jed
