Can I define Alt key menu keyboard shortcuts for bookmarks in Firefox 3.6?
Example:
Tropical Weather is in the Bookmarks menu. A keyboard-only way to use this bookmark is:
Alt + B +
I would like to be able to do it this way:
Alt + B + W
Where the association of the underlined letter in the bookmark menu, W, to Tropical Weather is user-defined.
Is it possible?
Answer
It is possible by prefixing the shortcut in question with "w" or "W": Tropical Weather -> wTropical Weather. Then Alt + B + T will work as it will immediately open if there is only one shortcut that begins with "w". This is a general Windows feature, but with bookmarks we have direct control over the content of a menu, the booksmarks menu.
HowTo:
Open menu Booksmarks -> Show All Bookmarks.
Click on "Booksmarks Menu" in the left panel (it is in the tree All Bookmarks).
Select the bookmark in question on the right, Tropical Weather /
http://www.wunderground.com/tropical/
in the example.Add the prefix in the field Name, "w" in the example - the result is wTropical Weather.
If there is more than one shortcut that begins with "w" then rename the other shortcut(s) to not start with "w".
