This is
intended behaviour in IE. Pressing the access key shortcut focuses the
link or control. You need to then press Enter to activate it.
In
Firefox, it focuses and activates in one step. It's not broken, just
different!
The IE method gives the user the chance to check and
confirm their action.
Hope this
helps
Cheers
Ian
