Am I missing something?? I seem to need to tab eleven or twelve times to
get to Section 4. That seems excesive. Is there a shortcut I'm missing?

I'm finding this thread very useful as I would like to add drop down menus
to my own site - www.webaccessibility.biz - to make the navigation more
compact. But, as a person with limited hand function, I sometimes curse
dropdowns/flyouts when using my joystick because I end up on the wrong
submenu if my hand is shaky. I end up going somewhere where I didn't want
to go. So, I'm not convinced yet I want to do that to people on my site.

I'm open to ideas if someone can show me a truly accessible method.

Cheers,
Glenda
