hey zim and stormy; or, here is a stupid browser probem i am having
when i am typing in an open field–like the message box for this post, for example–i often use the up arrow key to navigate within that field, in order to insert / change something, because it is quicker than clicking
however, due to what must be a stupid and unforeseen and thus plague-ridden firefox update of some kind, now, when i hit the up arrow key, the cursor skips out of the text box entirely and bounces all the way up to the url box
meaning that when i hit the up arrow and begin typing something i want to appear earlier in the message, whatever i type appears in the url gay man's telescope, and my browsing history drops down based on the letters i typed, and it is all very terrible, and the room fills with obscenities
i refuse to change my typing habits simply because of some stupid unforeseen browser update
if you help me undo this black magic i will fill your home with a thousand pizzas and / or heady toppers where appropriate
please and thank you

also the pizza and / or heady topper offer applies to people other than zim and stormy, assuming that you know how to fix this terrible awful problem of mine

hmm i am unable to replicate this and mine just updated
normally you need to shift+tab to jump between different elements within a tab (which eventually cycles to the search and URL bar once you reach the top of the page)
if you go into tools > options > general, scroll toward the bottom and there's a setting for 'always use the cursor keys to navigate within pages'
does checking or unchecking that do anything

Seeing the pizza thing after the thread I just wrote is quite odd.
Also, I have no advice at all.
