Remove Cmd-Left Arrow mapping on OSX

On OSX, the default mapping for "place cursor on beginning of line" (home) and "place cursor at end of line" (end) is Cmd-Left Arrow and Cmd-Right Arrow. However, when editing in a form within Firefox, pressing Cmd-Left Arrow will make Firefox load the previous page, which makes you loose all your hard editing work.

This is very frustrating and counter productive in my daily work. Apart from some outdated Add-ons and old forum posts from 2004 I could not find a solution for the current version of Firefox (24.0). I've searched online, and also the add-on store in Firefox, and the Firefox help files.

Can somebody *please* add a keyboard shortcut configuration menu to the Firefox preferences pane, or at least disable these two key bindings from the OSX version of Firefox?

Thanks in advance, Rolf

Hello Rolf,

I am sorry that you are so frustrated with this shortcut. The best place to ask for a change to this would be on Bugzilla (the developers don't usually check this forum).

I have set up a form for you. Please click the link and enter in the information when prompted.

Thanks! Joshua Smith (iNerd)

Can't log in with my support.mozilla account there. It's a shame that support questions can't get "promoted" to bugs within mozilla.

Great. Entered the bug at mozilla, but those *** display my private email address at every page. Very nice. Not. Not doing that ever again.

I'll take one for the OSX team. Here's the link to the bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=925734

I see that there are more collisions with OSX keyboard shortcuts. Sounds something that should be solved more integrally.

Rolf,

I am sorry that your email is shown (never really thought of that before). If it makes you feel any better, the email is only shown to users who are logged in.

Thanks, and sorry again.

If you can change that in any way or make it optional "Show my address to all users - No" please try to push that. Not everybody likes to share their email address with a large set of people unknown to them (like me).
