I read about that. Try Shift + Alt + S.

In vBulletin and lots of other web applications and desktop software (Outlook for example), a standard keyboard shortcut for submitting forms is ALT+S. A lot of people on Bowlie may well find that their almost unconscious act of submitting a form now pops open the History menu in Firefox 2.
There are two ways to solve this, either:
Use the new Firefox specific shortcuts
Use the updated Firefox 2 shortcut for web page shortcuts, this is to use SHIFT+ALT and then the web page shortcut you want.

So instead of pressing ALT+S you would now press SHIFT+ALT+S. or: Change Firefox to use the shortcuts you were familiar with

You can change Firefox 2's web page shortcut key and swap it with the menu shortcut key. This means to Submit in web forms ALT+S would work, and to get to your History menu, SHIFT+ALT+S would be needed.
To change the shortcut keys:
1. Enter 'about:config' in the address bar and press enter.
2. Change ui.key.chromeAccess to have a value of: 5
3. Change ui.key.contentAccess to have a value of: 4

This only affects Firefox 2 users of Bowlie who are used to using the ALT+S shortcut to submit posts, PM's, new threads, comments, etc.

Re: Firefox 2 RC3

They all don't work for me anyway, be it Alt + S or Shift + Alt + S (which I mentioned couple of posts up) 'cos I'm on a Mac at work.

Re: Firefox 2 RC3

I hate that my developer toolbar has not been updated to be compatible with FF2, i kinda liked it. Tried installing the tab close button which should appear on the right corner (so you don't have to close each tab individually by clicking it's own close icon), but that doesn't work. Stealther also gives problems with some sites, they just won't load...but that feature is pretty obsolete anyway.
