    I've been at a couple of other boards that allow you to use ALT-S for submit on the new topic and new reply screens. It's very handy.

    i don't know how to do that, but it would be easy to make a tab go to the submit box using tabindex in the form element tags, so the text box is tabindex="1", and the submit button is tabindex="2", etc

    Yeah, I'm really not convinced this is doable by me personally...

    Looks like a bitch. .

    I really don't know much about UBB or InfoPop. With vBulletin, there is a template for new posts and editing posts, etc. You just look for the text that looks like:

    Code:
    <INPUT TYPE="Submit" NAME="submit" VALUE="Submit Reply">
    
    Change it to:

    Code:
    <INPUT TYPE="Submit" NAME="submit" accesskey="S" VALUE="Submit Reply (Alt-S)">
    
    Of course, since I don't know diddly about UBB, this might not work.

    I'll run an offline test on that code, and let you know if it works.
