Keyboard navigation works for me as I surf with script support off, by
default. In the old days, the fathers taught a long ago forgotten
principle of web desing: do not mix navigation and scripting. But today,
alas, every design flaw seems $(olvable)!

We have a new page going up (https://slu.cuny.edu/) and while I can TAB to the top of page and main menu items ("Prospective Students, Current Students; About, etc.), I cannot activate them with the Enter key on the keyboard (Please ignore the other issues we are working on). I assume it has something to do with the javascript event listener Keydown event, but I'm not sure what the issue is or how to fix it.
