Why do you want to detect all pressings of this key combination,
regardless of what it's assigned to do on the user's browser/OS combination?

It doubt it's possible, but still....

I like that. However, sometimes private communication is better (as would
apply for this posting, q.e.d.), so you should include your primary mailbox
in the Reply-To header. From my now four years of regular Usenet
experience, it is highly unlikely that spambots will access that header.

Your experience is limited; your advice misleading; your maturity long-
awaited; your naivety impressive.

One does not really care whether spambots will access that header; one
cares about whether spam will be sent to an address given to the world
only in Usenet Reply-To headers.

Usenet Reply-To headers get in News article sets in personal computers
(however, in Turnpike they are encrypted); if used for replies, or if
saved as potentially useful, or if otherwise stored, they can be picked
up by malware and used for sending spam and virus mail. And I can
assure you that this can happen within a day or two; the French have
demonstrated this recently.

One should not present in News any E-address that one wants to use in
perpetuity - and one should present only addresses that one is entitled
to present.
In this 60th anniversary year - indeed, in this anniversary month, would
it not have been well for you to eschew the attitudes of your presumed
predecessors?

How to Detect Width Change

by: vunet | last post by:

When user enlarges font with Ctrl+ I want to increase the dimensions of my fixed sized div. IE7 uses zoom-in, so it will increase div dimensions automatically. Firefox, however, increases font only, not div element. I thought to implementing this by checking if my div width or height changed and then resize it. But this approach did not work: div.addEventListener('resize', someFunc, false); Please advise. Thanks

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
