        "content": "Here\u2019s how to get JAWS to jump to a *slider control* on a web page (for example, the \u201cseek\u201d slider on a YouTube video) using Chrome. Usually there isn\u2019t a single default key like the left bracket `[` that jumps *directly* to a slider\u2014but you *can* set one up, and you can also navigate to sliders using form control navigation or by customizing quick navigation keys.  \n\n---\n\n## \u2705 Existing Ways to Reach a Slider\n\n### 1. Navigate through Form Controls\n\n- Using **Tab** moves you through interactive elements, including sliders (because sliders are form controls).  \n- Also use **Shift + Tab** to go backwards.  \n- Once focus is on the slider, you can adjust it using arrow keys. ([vip.chowo.co.uk](https://vip.chowo.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/jaws/HTML-Page-Navigation-Guide.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n### 2. Use the *List of Form Fields*\n\n- Press **Insert + F5** (\u201cJAWS key\u201d + F5) to bring up a dialog showing all form fields on the page. You can select one from that list to jump directly to it. ([www2.freedomscientific.com](https://www2.freedomscientific.com/PDF/visionloss/manuals/JAWS-Quick-Start-Guide.pdf?utm_source=openai))  \n- If the slider is part of those, you can pick it from there. ([vip.chowo.co.uk](https://vip.chowo.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/jaws/HTML-Page-Navigation-Guide.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n## \u2699\ufe0f Assigning a Custom Key to \u201cSlider\u201d Quick Navigation\n\nGood news\u2014JAWS recently added support for assigning a specific quick-navigation key to \"Sliders\", so you can jump directly to them (next or previous) once you've assigned that key. ([toptechtidbits.com](https://toptechtidbits.com/news-10-03-2024/?utm_source=openai))\n\nHere\u2019s how:\n\n1. Press **Insert + F2**, then press **N**, then **Enter**. This opens the *Navigation Quick Key Manager*. ([toptechtidbits.com](https://toptechtidbits.com/news-10-03-2024/?utm_source=openai))  \n2. Find the action labelled **Slider** in the list. ([toptechtidbits.com](https://toptechtidbits.com/news-10-03-2024/?utm_source=openai))  \n3. Use Tab to move to **Edit Key Assignment**, then press **Spacebar**. Assign a key of your choice (for example `[` or another). ([toptechtidbits.com](https://toptechtidbits.com/news-10-03-2024/?utm_source=openai))  \n\nAfter that, pressing that assigned key will move to the next slider (or previous slider if combined with Shift).  \n\n---\n\n## \ud83d\udee0 Example: \u201cSeek\u201d Slider on YouTube\n\nOnce you\u2019ve assigned a key (say, `[`), here\u2019s what you\u2019d do:\n\n- Load the YouTube video page.\n- Press your custom \"Slider\" key (e.g. `[`). JAWS will jump to the video seek slider.  \n- Once focused, use **Left** / **Right Arrow** to move the slider thumb. Or **Home**/ **End** might take it to start/end.  \n\n---\n\nIf you want, I can give you step-by-step instructions *with screenshots* for your specific version of JAWS + Chrome, or help pick a key that won\u2019t conflict. Do you want that?"
