postheadericon Google Search: Accessible View

 

Navigate search results quickly and easily, with just your keyboard. As you navigate, items are magnified for easier viewing. If you use a screen reader or talking browser, the relevant information is spoken automatically as you navigate.


Current keyboard shortcuts include:

Key

Action

j or DOWN

Selects the next item.

k or UP

Selects the previous item.

l or RIGHT

Moves to the next category (results, sponsored links, refinements).

h or LEFT

Moves to the previous category (results, sponsored links, refinements).

<Enter>

Opens the selected result.

/

Puts the cursor in the search box.

n

Moves to the next result, and fetches more results if necessary.

p

Moves to the previous result, reloading earlier results if necessary.

=

-

A

W

For now, you need to use the Firefox 3 web browser with this experiment. This note will be updated as other browsers are added. Magnification already works with Google Chrome and Apple's Safari.
