The Univ. of Rochester Medical Center uses the MyChart patient communications interface product. https://mychart.urmc.rochester.edu/mychart/ MyChart supports messages from and patient replies to, doctors & staff. Replies are entered via an in-page box using an editor with standard and MS Word-like keyboard shortcuts.

Trying Alt+E+U to undo an edit, the page display jumped to the HTML code sheet, and I could not get back, losing 1000 characters of editing. My fault - I usually edit in Word and copy & paste into MyChart box.

Was the Alt+E, U switch to HTML a response by MyChart or Firefox? If by Firefox, is there a way to jump back to the page-editing view?

It is not a Firefox shortcut, unless some exetnsion has added new shortcuts.

Alt will bring up the menubar Alt + E Will move to the edit menu There is then no U option so it will not do anything.

There is a Ctrl + U option to bring up source code of the current page. That normally opens in an additional tab.
