Created attachment 483216 Patch for fixing this issue on Linux/Gtk2 This patch tries to fix the issue mentioned in the bug, for the Gtk2/Linux version of Firefox.
It's a compromise, where some keys are sent to Firefox and some to the plugin: - Pressing ctrl-t, ctrl-r, ctrl-w, F11 etc. always works in Firefox - Pressing space in youtube to pause videos works - Pressing ctrl in flash games works (but not in combination with other keys) - Editing text in flash forms, using ctrl-a, -z, -x, -c and -v works Hope it makes the world somewhat less annoying for someone. It works for me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/263435 Title: Firefox cannot close tab (using Ctrl-w) when flash content is selected on page -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
