[FX.php List] [OT] (mostly) CTRL-N in browser

Hi Glenn,

Thanks for the thought... unfortunately this solution needs to be able to be
accessed by any user, from any machine, with any browser, so I'm afraid that
client-side installs aren't going to be an option...

Cheers
Steve

Sorry for jumping in late, but maybe you can use something like AutoIT a 
windows automation language or automator for Mac.

I have used AutoIT successfully to enable scripted automatic transfer of 
data between FM & MYOB.

Certainly, it would require some install on each client, but may get you 
what you need, if you have no other method.

Just an idea.

There's no way around that Steve. The browser intercepts all calls first and
then passes them to the JavaScript interpreter as appropriate. If your
keystroke or combination already invokes an action in the browser, it's
already happened before JavaScript gets to see it. The Outlook Web Client
probably uses ActiveX in IE to manage it, and those features are probably
not available to other browsers.
