[edit] change the mappings
Could someone add the info on how the change the mappings? Dori | Talk 16:08, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
I'm also looking around for more info. I bumped into it before, but it's very hard to search for info on this topic. -- Sy / (talk) 16:44, Mar 5, 2005 (UTC)
found it: User_Styles#Changing_access_keys
- Yes, its very hard to find info on this, finally figured it out on my own. Btw, newer versions of mediawiki does not have monobook.js. I have MediaWiki 1.4rc1 and this is my solution to disable the pesky keyboard shortcuts (that interfere with firefox shortcuts, eg. alt-d to get to URL box).
inside: /wiki/skins/common/wikibits.js
Look for the lines that match this string: akeytt(). There should be two instances of this, one where the function is defined, and when it is called. comment out the part where akeytt() is called and all keyboard shortcuts should be disabled.

[edit] multiple keys for singlr fuction
Is it possible?
in many languages, keys on the keyboard serve double purpose as english or otherwise.
For example, someone writing in hebrew would have to stop and chane the keyborad language before using shortcuts, as Alt-b would be recognized by the computer as Alt-נ.
This kind of defeats the purpose of a shortcut.
Is it Possible to set the Accesskey to be both "b" and "נ"? (I know I can just cjange it to "נ", but I rather have them both) Daniel Tzvi 14:55, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
