Hey! I'll have you know that librarians are badass! Now, we clerical aids are just glorified stockboys/cashiers, but we've got the advantage of literary pretensions.

Is there a keyboard shortcut for posting a thread that works in FireFox?
It's the only thing I don't like about it besides lack of zoom. Alt + S sends you to history instead of posting

Re: Ask The Staff 'Anything'

Thank +Rep
I'll just use the mouse like the rest of the world :lol:

Another Question: Is it better for the site to put links to the home page or the forum page out in the world.

I've been adding this home page as my home page when I post on other forums.

As far as im aware both are as helpful as each other.

Take train B because trains are named in order of operation. So train A would go first and you can see if anything bad will happen before you get on the next train, train B.

Re: Ask The Staff 'Anything'

How to change font size in web pages. It was something with + and -, but I can`t remember exactly.
And it seems Ctrl + plus doesn`t work... if it should.

Thanks, AK! Linking to the homepage is the most efficient but if you can do both then that's twice as helpful.

Never thought of that, can tell i never use IE :lol:

Re: Ask The Staff 'Anything'

Can also change the zoom easier with "Ctrl+mouse scroll wheel," assuming your mouse has a scroll wheel. I found that out by accident when I was trying to copy something and then scroll up.

Re: Ask The Staff 'Anything'
