Newbie here. Can someone tell me if there are keyboard shortcuts for selecting the Address Bar and also for going Home in FireFox? They are not listed elsewhere and they don't show up in the menus.

Any advice appreciated and please tell me where to go if I'm in the wrong forum.

TIA, Doug

Press Command-L to highlight the address bar, and Alt-Home (on a laptop you have to press the fn key as well) to go to your home page.

other than mentioned above, F6 can move focus to urlbar as well, (plus Fn if you are on a laptop).

PS. if you are a mice person, see if this is good for you

KF, thanks, your keystrokes work fine. Clevin, I do my best to use the mouse only when I have to. But that app looks interesting.

Thank you,
Doug

Send link

Is there a send link shortcut like in safari or maybe a plugin? I swear, this is all I need.
