Disable backspace in firefox, like a page back button
Perhaps someone has come across the fact that when you type in a WYSIWYG editor, when you erase the text in some incredible set of circumstances, the browser may perceive you as a “Back” command and the text will be lost. Moreover, sometimes rather big. I ran into it today. Therefore, I decided to unzip this action. Fortunately, FireFox allows it. It is done as follows: Type about: config in the address bar Find the setting: browser.backspace_action and switch to 1 . Now backspace works like kravish, the opposite of the space (scrolling). Shift + Space = BackSpace Shift + Backspace = Space UPD: This is exactly WYSIWYG , which uses an iframe (for example, FCKEditor). IFRAME text is not saved, unlike TEXTAREA
