I am a key shortcut junkie and the lack of working accesskeys is driving me and other screenreader users insane. Please fix this as soon as you can. Thanks.

Access keys in the validator are documented at:
http://validator.w3.org/accesskeys.html

And, except for the access key 2 which is now deprecated (the doc should be updated), they seem to work (at least with my current browser).

Can you give more details about which access keys you tried to access, with which user-agent, and why you report that most access keys are broken?

Thanks.

hearing no reply after a couple of months, I am closing this. Feel free to reopen with details. Thank you.
