F6 changes focus between address bar, bookmarks bar and webpage. Not just address bar and webpage.

As #23: Alt+D, then F6, does not open bookmarks?

That is not working???
Reply #1 admin Dec 29, 2016 at 12:33 am
fixed; you are correct. that no longer works.
Comment #31 by Dan Huang Mar 1, 2016 at 07:15 pm Reply
Seems useful, but how come some characters seem Persian instead of alphabets (chapter 1, 9 and parts of 7 and and 8)?
Reply #1 admin Mar 7, 2016 at 07:18 am
fixed; Thanks for pointing this out; this fell through the cracks. Somebody edited the master english page instead of a local translated page. sorry.

I use a Chromebook. The keyboard does not have many of the dedicated navigation and F keys, such as Home, End, Page Up, etc. These keys are found in this list of shortcuts. Is there another comparable collection of shortcuts for the Chromebook keyboard?

What is the simplest, single key to press to move the cursor into the search field of a google home page in chrome browser. Windows 7 Pro, 64-bit, Chrome Version 45.0.2454.99 m Thanks!

So much aggravation that the Chrome menu provides no way to close a single tab (Ctrl-W works for me; thanks). That is, until you come to this fine, long list of keyboard shortcuts, and keyboard shortcuts are faster than mousing, with a little practice. Now, I've got almost a hundred shortcuts; oy vai. Easiest to learn one keyboard shortcut at a time, as I realize I need it. Ctrl-D your list. -neil-

Hello, Thanks for your useful compilation of Chrome Shortcuts! I found what i was looking for but it does not work exactly as you say: http://www.shortcutworld.com/en/linux/Chrome.html#link_2 In the Address Bar: Alt-Enter - performs search in new tab (not adding www. and .com) Which is exactly what i was looking for! cheers,
Comment #26 by WXB Mar 8, 2015 at 04:23 am Reply
Per Google Chrome Help - Keyboard shortcuts (https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/157179): Linux/Windows "Ctrl+Shift+D Saves all open pages as bookmarks in a new folder." Mac "⌘-Shift-D Saves all open pages as bookmarks in a new folder." P.S. Thanks for the lists!
Comment #25 by Sarah Jan 27, 2015 at 02:48 pm Reply
Cntl-W now closes the whole window, not just the tab on Chrome for Mac. (Very annoying!)
Comment #24 by dae Jan 23, 2015 at 03:39 pm Reply
When on the main google.com page, you can activate the microphone in the search box with Control+Shift+. (a period). (verified in Win7)
Comment #23 by Justin Dec 5, 2014 at 12:55 pm Reply
The "up" links at the top of each section span the entire length of the table. I clicked one by accident and lost my place on the page. It was slightly annoying. I feel like the links should only surround the text and the up arrow icon. It's upsetting to click on a spot on the page (with seemingly nothing there) to set focus to my browser and accidentally click a link. Just sayin. This would make your site better IMHO. I'm using Chrome in case it makes a difference.

very nice shortcut

Hi Justin, good feedback and thanks for letting me know. Fixed it. sorry this took a while.

The guide says:
Alt+F4 Close current window
That is not correct, that closes Chrome. To close only the open Window you need control +W

Say I do a search on Google or a search on any shopping website for that matter and end up with 100s of pages to look at, is there a short cut to go to the "next page"? its a nuisance having to relocate my mouse over the "next page" button all the time especially as they move around all the time.

The "alt + d, then f6" to jump to bookmarks bar is not working. I push either alt + d, or f6 and they both jump to address bar. If i push them again, it doesn't do anything.

Add 2 cents:
Ctrl-G for continue search even if search box is closed

The Win tab isn't working...
Otherwise, very useful. Thank you.
Reply #1 jeff Mar 22, 2012 at 09:55 pm
The "Win tab" I was referring to was via the Chrome shortcuts tab...
... though, I was able to access it by going to the menu on the left:
Platforms > Windows Shortcuts > Chrome
