Keyboard F1-F12 keys.

Hi,

Does anyone know of an Keyboard app or perhaps even a browser that has F1-F12 functionality?

I work on-call a lot of the time, and the company's old program that I can log into from home/on my phone to see my standing on the spare-board uses the F1-F12 keys to navigate forwards/backwards/etc.

The whole system is numbers based. I put a "1" and then enter to get into one set of menus. Then maybe a "16" to see a board list. But then I need to use the F3 key to get back to the main menu -- I can't just hit the browser "back" button -- the website security doesn't allow that. It has to be an F-key to navigate.

A typical session for me would look something like this:

[Main menu]
1 > 16 > F3 [back to main menu]
3 > 9 > F11 > 12 > F11 > 18 > F3 [back to main menu]
2 > 1 > [set of board codes] > F3 [back to main menu]
etc, etc...

I need the F-keys to get around. Otherwise I can only log in and drill down into one set of menus. To start again at the main menu, I actually have to start again by logging in all over again.
