Depending on how much control you have over your deployment, remember that is it pretty much trivial to modify the Firefox XUL files which define the keyboard shortcuts browser-wide. Turning off certain shortcut combinations would take a few minutes at the most, once ou knew where to look. Then just distribute the XUL files to the clients (I think you do it via Firefox profiles, so you would have a profile on each client called 'Data Entry' or similar). --Jon --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
