Thanks for that. It gives me hope. However, so far, I have been not able to make it work. I suspect that customizing.html is out-of-date? Here is what I tried. I created this userHTMLBindings.xml in the res/builtin directory (which already contains files htmlBindings.xml and platformHTMLBindings.xml); <?xml version="1.0"?> <!-- In order to work correctly, this file must be named --> <!-- res/builtin/userHTMLBindings.xml in the mozilla tree. --> <bindings id="htmlBindings" xmlns="http://www.mozilla.org/xbl"; xmlns:xul="http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul";> <binding id="editorUser"> <handlers> <handler event="keypress" key="n" modifiers="control" command="cmd_lineNext"/> <handler event="keypress" key="p" modifiers="control" command="cmd_linePrevious"/> <handler event="keypress" key="f" modifiers="control" command="cmd_charNext"/> <handler event="keypress" key="b" modifiers="control" command="cmd_charPrevious"/> </handlers> </binding> <binding id="browserUser"> <handlers> <handler event="keypress" keycode="VK_BACK" command="cmd_scrollPageUp"/> <handler event="keypress" key="v" modifiers="alt" command="cmd_scrollPageUp"/> <handler event="keypress" key="v" modifiers="control" command="cmd_scrollPageDown"/> </handlers> </binding> </bindings> I put a shortcut to this in my chrome directory. I also put a copy of it into the comm.jar of the chrome directory. However, when I fire up the email composer, my keys are not recognized. I do notice that htmlBindings.xml and platformHTMLBindings.xml are not in comm.jar, nor can I find references to them under chrome. What am I missing? BTW, I am running Windows 2000. Thanks for any new clues!
