[OPEN] Improvement: Tab Enter for replies

[kmount]

I wouldn't mind it if there was another shortcut to post the reply

I'd be happy with something else too.

I think that Alt-S hits the submit button but that only seems to work in IE, does not work in Firefox at all, well not for the past two or so versions.

Opens History Menu in FF, or does for me as I have a menu bar instead of there weird incarnation of the MS Office theme?!

OK, so pressing Alt + S in Chrome 12 appears to submit it.

Point to note, the report post function still works ok with tab + enter.

I have not forgotten about this issue, there appears to be weird issues with FF (esp <4.01) which are supposed to be fixed in 4.1.5 but its all a bit unspecific right now. I cant recreate the chrome issue, webman what OS are you having the problem on?

Cheers

tab+enter works OK for me in FF5 It brings me to this quick reply box.

PS. Thanks for the heads up on this @kmount, i didnt even realise the shortcut existed

Issue persists in Firefox 5.0 here.

Issue persists in Firefox 5.0 here.

Which OS? just so I can test from here.

[kmount]

Using Linux Mint 11 x64.

Was on Firefox 3 before (Linux Mint 10 uses that), upgraded from 10>11 via aptitude (which was fun and not like you'd think from a debian background) which brought in new firefox and it still does it I'm afraid.

[kmount]

Doesn't work on Chromium 12 on this OS either.

(but alt + s does)

I wonder if its a linux issue tbh now, all the test setups involving windows/mac I have seem to work (chrome 12 included)

[kmount]

I'm not entirely sure either way, it seems odd that the "report a post" functionality works just fine, it's this new snazzy reply box that auto saves, calculates the phase of the moon etc that seems to bring the issue up.

Still no good here Shaun and as you know I'm a Windows lover Windows 7 Pro X64 with FireFox 4.0.1 and for me it would be 3 tabs then enter not the 2 with me having the close thread button like you but still doesn't work

Can those having this issue please see if it still happens now as we are now running 4.1.5 which has a large amount of fixes.
Running Chrome 13.0.782.107 beta Win 7 and tab is fine for me.
