Many sites have a uniform set of navigation links that
appear on all or most of the pages. The repeated reading of these navigation
links can become quite tedious for those using assistive technologies such as
screen readers. The good news is that it’s easy to provide a means to skip
over such sections. Place an anchor (or bookmark) at the start of your main
content. Then, place a hyperlink to that anchor before the start of your
navigational links. And, for browsers which support the HTML 4.0 "tabindex"
attribute, you should include "tabindex=1" in the anchor after the links. This
permits users to tab past the redundant links.
