I can no longer use alt + 146 to type AeSiR's name...
in fact everytime I type alt + anything I am transported to the search page, or the main page.

It still works when I google (I just did a firefox update & assumed it was the culprit). I just tried it at the Gabshack, with the same results as here.

Any ideas? Anyone else have this problem?

Is one of your F (F1, F2, etc..) keys stuck somehow?

It's a firefox thing...I think. It's happening to me on other boards too...

Yeah, it doesn't happen with IE...the fox must be punished. :mad:

Are you on a PC? IE comes with all Windows boxes...

I have IE 6, but I haven't tried it with that. AOL uses Netscape, right? I know it's not working with that.

No, it's not just this site...

*shakes head in frustration*

Nobody's listening...as soon as I hit my 'alt' key with any other key weird things happen.

Actually it's a bug with Firefox's hot keys

Yes, but it doesn't matter if it's on or not, I've tried it both ways.

I know that, Mike, I poured over all that stuff when I first realized there was a problem.

BTW, I fixed that second link...

No, should it be!? :hmm:

Thanks to everybody else, but I don't have FF - I've got whatever the heck AOHell uses.

To use the square keypad on the right, you need numlock-the numbers on top are always cool-but it's not as easy...

That was what it was - numlock is always on - I had to use the one on the right.

Thanks! :nice:

*bump*

So, Alt + 1 refreshes the main page, and Alt + 4 takes the user to the DA search page when using FF 1.5.

Is this a vB code thing that can be fixed?

I just wish there was a way to disable the FF keyboard shortcuts. :(
