            Honestly I don't see it being a big problem as you can klick the send buttons. Besides that, ALT + S is working here, atleast in the quick response it does work (using IE9).

              Just because its not a problem for you or you dont consider it a big problem - doesnt mean its not a problem....

              i NEVER use a send button either (in any program) and i promise you its &/#(&/¤#)&()&("¤ annoying not being able to use the keyboard only....

              it has always worked before..... and i would like to have it working again.... sure you can press a button.... thats besides the point!! for 5 years me and MANY of my users have NOT pressed it... so can you please help me locate the error so i can get it to work again...



              and i have BTW just copied this answer trying to Alt+S send it in this forum using both chrome, FF and IE9 - and its not working... i have to click....

              It measn a lot to a lot of people to have this corrected.. so can you please help me with a solution instead of discarding me and telling me its not a problem...

              I would not have made a thread in here if it was not something that was important for my users!

                It does work in Chrome here.

                - - - Updated - - -

                Testing in FF for alt+s does not work.

                - - - Updated - - -

                Another FF test

                FF works fine in here with shift+alt+s as it should.

                - - - Updated - - -

                IE9 test..................... Working

                    Check what the specific Browser shortcut is - Firefox changed to using ALT+SHIFT+S some time back rather than ALT+S, I believe others use the same combination also (haven't checked specifically)

                            Another reason I can't make the switch to firefox or chrome, shift alt anything is not super easy.
