Jamal, *anything for u! The config names.ini entry for ff is as follows:
Firefox3.0=firefox
I then put all firefox scripts, configuration files, etc. in *my user
folder, to include config names.ini. It wouldn't work otherwise. Yes,
I can verify that I can attach a keystroke to a script via this
method.
Anything else u need?
