Useful keyboard shortcuts in web browsers
Hello to all my dear friends, I hope you're having a good time
In this post I want to talk to you about useful keyboard shortcuts in web browsers; be sure to read this post.
Today, browsing the web has become one of our nonstop activities, and we use browsers for it, so it's better to get to know them more so we can make them fulfill our wishes more easily and quickly.
One of the important things for using browsers faster is memorizing some of the important browser shortcuts, so we avoid digging through menus and wasting our time.
Below we'll go over the most important shortcuts that exist in all browsers. I'll try to avoid including shortcuts that are used less and only cover the ones that are more important and used more.
The most important shortcut, which is used a lot, is for opening a link in a new tab. For example, you might be on a site that links to a page on another site. Now you want to open the link in a new tab without losing the current site. To do this, instead of clicking the link, just Middle Click it, that is, click it with the middle mouse wheel. This opens the link in a new tab. But if your middle mouse button is broken, or you don't like the sound of it clicking (like me)! you can hold the Ctrl key on your keyboard and then click the link. This opens the link in a new tab. Of course, these two methods have one small difference, and anyone who figures it out (without knowing beforehand or searching the internet!) is very smart!
Another shortcut that may come in handy is Ctrl + T. This shortcut is used to open a new tab. To remember this shortcut, just remember that T is the first letter of Tab.
To switch between tabs you can use two shortcuts. You can use Ctrl + Tab to move forward between tabs and Ctrl + Shift + Tab to move backward between tabs. To remember this shortcut, remember the shape of the Tab key, which has two arrows going back and forth.
To close the current tab you can use the Ctrl + F4 keys. To remember this shortcut, you can think of the Alt + F4 keys, which are used to close a window.
If you ever close a tab by mistake, there's no need to go to the browser history; just press Ctrl + Shift + T to reopen the last tab you closed. To remember this shortcut, you can think of Ctrl + T, which was for opening a new tab.
To see your browser history you can use the Ctrl + H keys. The letter H is the first letter of the word History, which can remind you of this shortcut.
When you want the cursor to go to the browser's address bar so you can change the address, you can use the Ctrl + L shortcut. I don't know exactly what the letter L stands for in this shortcut, but we can assume it's the first letter of the word Location.
One thing we may run into a lot is wanting to look for a word or phrase on a web page. To do this you can use the Ctrl + F keys. The letter F is the first letter of the word Find.
Another frequently used one is opening the browser's downloaded files section. To do this you can use the Ctrl + J keys. Unfortunately, I don't know the reason for using this letter either! But I always think of the jDownloads extension and remember that the letter J is for the downloads section.
The last shortcut we'll cover is Ctrl + P, which lets you print the current page. As you've easily figured out yourself, the letter P is the first letter of the word Print.
