User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20060918 Firefox/2.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20060918 Firefox/2.0

Opera has changed some of its keyboard shortcuts in the latest version.

For example:
- New tab is now Ctrl+T (not Ctrl+N)
- Add to bookmarks is now Ctrl+D (not Ctrl+T)

I believe that some other shortcuts has changed also but I'm not using this browser.

When I have time, I will try to update the list and paste it here.

Reproducible: Always

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?full=1 says:
mozilla.org:  	 The administration of the Mozilla Project and its servers (Website content bugs will belong in the Websites product)

This bug concerns website content so either the above text is wrong or the Product should be Websites.

Actually, it's neither of the above. The "www.mozilla.org" component (currently in the "mozilla.org" product) will be moving to the "Websites" product sometime in the future, so "Websites" will be the place for bugs to go. However, this is a state of limbo that not much can be done about. For problems with the www.mozilla.org website, "mozilla.org :: www.mozilla.org" is the correct place for now.

Attachment: Correct Opera shortcuts

The file contains shortcuts that are different than on the page

There is also one bad footnote:

"2: Web Search moves the cursor to the Search Bar and only works if the Search Bar is visible. If the Search Bar is hidden, this keyboard shortcut has no effect."

That's wrong because this shortcut opens now "Mozilla Firefox Start Page".

Do I have to open a new bug for it?

Looks like they re-assigned a lot of keyboard shortcuts. I'm willing to bet the Mac and Linux ones have changed as well. Do you have updated versions for Mac and Linux?

(It also looks like they tried to make them similar to Firefox shortcuts. :-) )

It's actually different on the latest stable release (1.5.0.7) as well. Open a new bug, and add me to the CC list on it.
