Dunno how many other people use Macs, so if it only affects me don't worry about it. I was gonna submit this on the Bug Tracker, but decided not to start fiddling with things I don't understand XD

Basically, when I'm writing a PM or a forum post if I press Apple+Home or Apple+Shift+Home to jump back to the beginning of the sentence (something I use quite often cause I forget things cause I'm a div) it a**umes I want to go back a page - this doesn't happen on any of the other forums I use if I'm clicked into a text box.

I don't know if this is fixable, but if it is I would love it if it could be added to the list, since there have been times when I've written out huuuuuuge posts or PMs and wanted to jump to the start of a sentence or paragraph to add or delete something and lost an age worth's of work x_x

It doesn't happen in the Chat Room :3

Let me know if you want me to test if it happens anywhere else, or if there's anything else you want to ask me ^^ <3

I'm going to a**ume (from a programmer's viewpoint) that Macs have a different way of being told that the focus is inside a textbox.

Maybe this will help CK, maybe not. (smiley)

I don't think I have a say in that.

Safari has terrible support for richtext, so it probably doesn't regard a richtext box as a typing area.

If it doesn't think a text box has focus, your key combination will be treated as if they were done when the page had focus, rather than a text editing field.

This is Safari's fault, as far as I can see.

There isn't really a workaround, unless I've read your post incorrectly.

Oh, well, that makes it even less likely to succeed(smiley) Firefox isn't fully native in any os it's installed(smiley)
