Re: How to provide skip to content and skip navigation?

Hello Karthik,
If you are talking about a web page that is built on HTML and CSS; here is
what you would do:
At the top of the page (after <head> section and after starting of <body>)
include <a href="#content">Skip to main content</a> and where your content
begins, add <a name="content">. Similar to add Skip navigation as well -
just that you need to change in words.

If you are using Content Management Systems such as Word Press, Drupal
etc., there will be plugins, for word press, some themes (those are
accessibility ready) will have Skip links by default.

Hope this helps,
