hey guys, i tried searching on google and here, and i can't seem to find a fix for this.

any way to change alt+s so that it does the reply function?

i changed it in FF2.x and IE7 is set on default, but iono how to change it in opera.

I believe you might need to press shift+esc to bring up the list of quick access keys, although I don't know if it will work in this case.

test.

doing shift + esc brings up a pop up, then i press S to reply.

hmm..

Go to opera:config and type User

Go down to the User Pref segment, and click Always Load User Javascript and User Javascript

In the User Javascript File, type something like "C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Opera\Opera\profile\UserJS.js" (I'm using Vista)

In XP it will be Document & Settings, Local Settings, Applications (or something like that)\opera\...

Anyway create a UserJS.js file in notepad and paste this code

window.opera.addEventListener('BeforeEvent.click',clickEvent,false);
document.onkeydown = buttonPress;

var nplCurrentForm;

function altS()
{
if(nplCurrentForm == null) return;
try
{
nplCurrentForm.submit();
}
catch(ex)
{
nplCurrentForm.submit.click(); //in case "submit" is actually a button which overrides the submit method of the form
}
}

function clickEvent(e)
{ 
if(e != null)
buttonPress(e.event)
}

function buttonPress(e)
{
if(e !=null)
if(e.target != null)
if(e.target.form != null)
nplCurrentForm = e.target.form;
}

Save it and put it in whatever directory path u had written above

Now back in Opera, go to Tools>Preferences>Advanced>Shortcuts>Keyboard>Edit your keyboard layout

Under Application

Create a new entry with values

s alt on the left hand side

"Go to page, "java script:altS()"

on the right hand side..

save it and you should be done after restarting opera

tried johw's solution, but when i press alt-s it opens up a new tab which searches what i've written in the post on google :unsure:

Remove the space " " between java and script, the forum automatically puts that there, so if you remove that it should work.

Hello.

Opera is the best browser for forums, it opens forums so fast in compare with IE and FF and Chrome and any browser. That's reason why I need Alt+s feature which misses for odd reason in Opera.

I tried this script. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong but when I post something in field and use Alt+S Opera brings me back in the same page with empty post field.

Here is screenshot of shortcutes. Tell me what's wrong and help me how to add Alt+S to Opera? :D

Edit: Oh, what happened? I used Alt+S here and it worked but in another forum don't work!? I guess this scrtipt not work in phpbb forums. :(

[wellofsouls]

it depends on the forum software support the script, of course.

[Inter_XYZ]

Maybe someone got working script for phpbb? :)

[JOHW]

Didn't realize that it doesn't work on phpbb forums..

I got that code from somewhere on the internet years ago..and attempts to look for the original source only brings me back to my own post...so sorry I can't help :(

[Inter_XYZ]

No problem. Thanks. :)
