I haven't tested it with IE4, but on NS4.01, I can press the Tab key until
the link or button I want to activate is "highlighted" and then pressing
Enter.

I hope this helps.

How would someone who was not able to use a mouse surf the internet?

In Netscape you can use Ctrl+L and then type in an address, but what if they
want to activate a link on the page. 

Has anyone dealt with this before?  Is there a special browser, plug-in or
something that would allow a patron to surf the internet using a keyboard?
