I personally find this incredibly annoying behavior from IE, when I don’t realize I don’t have keyboard focus on a text field and I hit backspace and end up somewhere ele.
My favorite feature of IE and probably others that nobody seems to know (at least among my friends and family, I’m sure everyone here knows about it): hold down CTRL and wiggle the mouse wheel, and the text on the web page grows and shrinks. Very handy.
Hmm, apparently that feature does not work on SDMB pages. :o
Seems to work on most other sites.
When a webpages uses javascript to disable right-click features on your mouse, you can still accomplish most of them via the File, Edit, View (etc) tabs across the top of your browser. Two of the more common things people want to use right click for are:
• view source
– you can do this with view—>source (oddly enough 
)
• save a picture on that page
– you can do this with file —> save as complete webpage, then you will see all pictures on that webpage in a folder one level down entitled “<title of page you were just viewing> Files” – save what you want and delete the rest.
Works for me. 
Especially when you inadvertently delete a post that you were trying to correct your grammar on. At times like that, I feel like screaming 'cause it’s invariably a lengthy post that gets eaten.
Another feature request – I have several GMail invites that are cluttering up my screen. Does anyone know how to make them into links so that I don’t have to e-mail them to people? I have no use for them whatsoever, and have seen this done.
Send the invites to your own email address, and copy the links that you get in your email and post those.
Use Soople as your Google interface and don’t bother remembering how to do things in Google.
What a cool tool! If only it had a Gmail console… But still, great link!
In Firefox or Opera, instead of using CTRL+F, just hit the “/” button (beside the right shift) and it’ll search for whatever you type in, letter by letter.
In Opera it only finds the first instance of the word, but Firefox will find more (a small diaglogue pops up)
In MSIE, if attempting to change the text size on a page has no effect, go to tools/internet options, click on the “accessibilty” button, then check the box for the option “ignore font sizes specified on web pages”.
