    Hi

    In windows, when using internet explorer, you can directly jump to the address bar field by pressing F6. I am just wondering whether if Mac has the same function too for safari. I know you go comman+option and F to jump to the the search bar, is there a similar one for the address bar

    thanks

    Not a matter of knowing or not knowing if you have already tried, but a lot of people ask simple questions that can easily searched on google. I would have found the answer to you had I had the time. But I didn't so I just offered what I would do to look up the answer in case you hadn't already.

    I rather not answer to that but I just can't resist. I was given the link to the safari shortcut website which is where I found the shortcut to the google search field before I posted, but i still couldn't find the shortcut to the address bar on that page. But thanks to RadcomTxx's helpful post, now I know the shortcut to that. Anyways, my point is I have tried to find the answer to my question before I post it here.

    K, good. Glad you do it at least. I wasn't meaning to be rude in any way by my first post, just offering an alternative.
