Navigation principles are explained in the two following sections:
Skip links
Skip links are a fast way to go directly to the desired section : Main content or sitemap.
Skip links are stated at the beginning of the document (for vocal or braille browsers) and position the reading tools to some parts and avoid others.
Keyboard shortcuts
