Forum:Typing Alt-D while editing topic deletes topic

When I am editing a topic in the wiki that I administrate, I sometimes need more material from 3rd party sites. So I hit Alt-D which is supposed to move the focus to the URL bar in Firefox (which is what I use). However, half the time, Firefox acts like I clicked the Delete link. I am starting to learn to use Ctrl-L (which supposedly does the same thing), but I still tend to use Alt-D. Will 04:14, 11 September 2006 (UTC)


 * This is part of the defined shortcut keys for the Monobook skin. You can remove it for your user by adding to your monobook.js:

ta['ca-delete'] = new Array('','Delete this page');
 * Or even change it to another key:

ta['ca-delete'] = new Array('~','Delete this page');
 * Keys that usually aren't defined as accesskeys:   --Splarka (talk) 06:14, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. Is that once per wiki or global? Will 07:05, 11 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Based on my tests, the answer is once per wiki. Users must copy their settings around for each wiki they work on. Will 07:08, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Then again, it is not even working. I added it to the page you specified both here and in my wiki. It had no effect -- at least there. Will 07:11, 11 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Clear your cache. And it is not global (I've requested global css/js long ago, being worked on). --Splarka (talk) 08:02, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Cache cleared. Still no effect. Will 20:19, 11 September 2006 (UTC)


 * What wikia are you trying to do this on? It works for me. Try 'show preview' on the monobook, and hover your mouse over the delete button, the "[alt-d]" in the text should also be missing. --Splarka (talk) 22:53, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

ChristianMusic is the Wiki. It still shows Alt-D. I have the code you gave entered into User:Will Pittenger/monobook.js and w:c:ChristianMusic:User:Will Pittenger/monobook.js. What did I do wrong? Will 23:02, 11 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Somehow you left out the two single quotes (apostrophes) which broke it on christianmusic. The one here won't do any good as you aren't admin, but was grammatically correct. Try clearing your cache on christianmusic now. --Splarka (talk) 23:14, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Ok. That's better. Thanks. Will 23:50, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
