Being a long term unix user I have always used [home] and [end] for top and bottom of file. (On terminals that supported those keys.) But with some recent update I find that those keys take me to beginning of line and end of line, not the top of file and bottom of file. What a nasty change! Why break all of us old farts? Doing more research revealed that MS-Word used [home] for beginning of line and [end] for end of line. Who would have thunk it? Apparently someone changed the behavior to be more similar to MS-Word behavior. Chalk up another win for the ms folks. The traditional unix bahavior has always been the other way around. Therefore I think the answer is that traditional unix behavior has been replaced with contemporary ms behavior many places. Mozilla has been around for a long time and must be using the "normal unix" behavior for those keys and not the "normal ms" behavior. Bob
