Navigation Shortcuts
Extension Delisted
This extension is no longer available in the official store. Delisted on 2025-09-16.
Allows next, up, prev, and top links to be used with simple keyboard shortcuts.
A must-have extension for reading online books, documentation, tutorials, and blogs! Easily navigate in between webpages with these extremely simple keyboard shortcuts:
Space Bar - navigates to the next page when scrolled to the bottom
Shift + Space Bar - navigates to the previous page when scrolled to the top.
(Use the Option key instead of the Ctrl key on Mac)
Ctrl + Right - navigates to the next page
Ctrl + Left - navigates to the previous page
Ctrl + Up - navigates to section's index page
Ctrl + Shift + Up - navigates to the top page
Uses HTML's rel attribute and smart link detection to determine where to go. Currently rel="next", rel="prev", rel="up", and rel="top" are supported.

In general, I liked this a lot. The one criticism I have is that there's no way to either change the shortcuts or to disable a given action. This means that if you're using this on a laptop with no PageUp key, you might have trouble, since the shortcut for going to the section page overrides the normal behavior of Ctrl+Up that uses it as PageUp.
Works really well, thank you!
Best extension ever!
Does the job!
Love this, but I did not find any page that uses these meta tags (no one but mine :D) Hopefully other pages will use this feature soon!
Hitting space button goes instantly to the next page instead of scrolling to the bottom of the page first.
It doesn't work!
