The following is a table of Netscape Navigator functions (or potential functions) and their keyboard shortcuts in Macintosh, Unix, and Windows versions. If a function exists in the browser but does not have a shortcut, its corresponding cell is marked with an asterisk(*). If the function does not exist, it is left blank.
Some entries contain links to special notes. The number in parentheses following the link is the number of the relevant note.
