Not Able to Select Mulitple Items with Shift Key

Hi there:

I am trying out K-Meleon 75 and when I go to any email site, I can not hold down Shift and select multiple messages. Usually, I press Shift, and click on the first and last boxes I wish to select, and the whole range is highlghted. But when I press Shift in the new K-Meleon, it will not select anything.

Any help is appreciated. I must say this browser is working even better than K-Meleon 74.

Never mind. Solved it - I think. I renamed the accel.cfg file in the "defaults" directory. It works now.

Well, hey! It worked, and I wasn't getting any responses. So maybe it was overkill, but I don't really need any fancy K-Meleon specific keyboard shortcuts any how. I'd rather the website work the way I'm used to.

Well yes, but not ALL are fancy, and the prob is that other clueless readers might do the same and then some time later get angry because lots of things don't work anymore at all. And meanwhile they've forgotten again about their own changes.

Just look inside that file, there are two lines starting like that:
SHIFT LButton
Disable them by starting those lines with a comment sign: #
and look if that helps?
