Re: Firefox Alerts - How to Gain Focus?

Hi,

 

Shift+Alt+A is quicker in Chrome, as it always takes you straight to alerts.  F6 means you sometimes need to cycle a few times to get there.

 

All the best

F6 will move focus to Firefox and Chrome alerts. SHIFT-F6 reverses focus.

Hi, Brian. I never said it was a system alert. If it’s asking you to remember location, try ALT plus R.

Bill,
 
        This is not a system alert, it is a Firefox alert, and it does hang out for quite a while.

         Two proposed methods have been given, ALT+R  [which my gut is telling me probably won't work] or using ALT+D to get to the address bar, then Shift + Tab until you hear "Alert button," which you can then activate to get focus.
