#29113 [Opn->Bgs]: Alt-S is used be IExplorer

ID: 29113 Updated by: goba@php.net Reported By: hd dot phpsup at aimail dot de -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Website problem Operating System: Windows PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: Well, it is very hard to find a 'proper' access key as even if you only consider English versions of popular browsers, a lot of keys are already used. See http://www.wats.ca/resources/accesskeysandkeystrokes/38 Now add in all different language variant and you can get an idea of why we are not choosing some less obvious combination.

Well, sorry, so Alt-F won't work either. I would maintain the original point, to change it to SOMETHING else, though, as Alt-S is really the only shortcut I press without thinking. German IE has Alt-S, -D, -B, -A, -F, -X, -? defined for Menus and the Address field.

Searching is Ctrl-F usually anyway so why don't use Alt-F for this! --- Verbose: Sorry, yes, sorry once more I DO use IE, I know I be burned alive for that sin. But then. I do web sites for ordinary users. Anyway, php is a delight and the site is matching up to that, so I thought this was below expectation. You forced me to use the mouse! cheers, Henning ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=29113&edit=1
