Quick reply

how does it work in FF?

like in IE6/7 i'm in the habit of pressing ALT + S to make a quick reply. But in FF when i go to do that it opens up "bookmarks" instead.

i was just wondering if there is any kind of shortcut key to make it work like that?

the 'TAB' key does it for me in FF2.

BUT - it cycles thru all the links, form elements too.

i'm just so used to hitting alt + s

nvrmnd..
For IE 7 the 'ALT-S' = 'Put cursor in Search box in feed view'

So Im thinking its a 'positive' bug in your case

Clicking on the 'reply' button under someones name does that also btw...

New SW = new habits to make and old ones to break I guess.

all i'm saying is that for the times that i HAVE to use firefox, i can't press alt + s and that command making the post. can't do that in firefox

you should be able to set an option somewhere, or download a plugin

i can't be arsed tabbing or using a shortcut since i have to pay attention to where it goes, to be honest there's nothing wrong with clicking ;p

it's not that i'm weak. it's just force of habit to press "alt + s" after each quick reply.
