the mozilla developer network says "Note that Firefox can customize the required modifier key by user's preferences." but I cant find where / how to do this.
I am writing a course on coding HTML; right now testing accesskey values, and it is not working to hit Shift+Alt+accesskey;

Do you have enabled multi-process tabs (e10s) in Firefox?

Answer to your first question: not clear; I am using multiple tabs in my browser windwo
Based on the knowledgbase articles, I have the default / standard setting of using Alt+Shift+accesskey
My code is simple:
<ol accesskey="s" style="list-style-type: decimal;" reversed>
<li>One </>
<li>Two </>
<li>Three </>
<li>Four </>
<li>Five </>
</ol>

Arg, I forgot to escape the html; maybe
< ol accesskey="s" style="list-style-type: decimal;" reversed>
< li>One </li>
< li>Two </li>
< li>Three </li>
< li>Four </li>
< li>Five </li>
< / ol>
(inserting spaces to break the tag recognition)
I'm not sure if this is a useful example of an access key. You normally use an access key is to activate a button or set focus to a input or text element.
What would you expect to happen with the code you posted?
<ol accesskey="s" style="list-style-type: decimal;" reversed onclick="alert('clicked')">
<li>One </li>
<li>Two </li>
<li>Three </li>
</ol>
I understand. I was running some simple experiments and I expected that the list would get the focus (which would require the screen to scroll down to the list) but nothing happened. So, maybe a case of great expectations for small facilities.
