[wp-forums] Forum Idea (Coding needed)

[Michael B]

The issue wasn't a major one, but when you are trying to assist in several 
threads at once, as sometimes can be the case, the ease of navigation is 
helpful, but not neccessary.
And though vicki's keyboard shortcut sounds nice, my old ibook doesn't offer 
that shortcut, but it does have me investigating other shortcuts, either FF 
specific, or a mac shortcut.
