Using the Facebook Shortcuts from Keyboard in your Browser

Usually we roam in the desktop with our mouse.But it is more easier to navigate from your keyboard with lots of shortcut keys.whenever we browse through any social network sites like Orkut, Facebook, MSN, LinkdIn etc..there are so many shortcuts available for easy navigation.The shortcuts work generally by pressing the Alt + key. But if you are using Firefox, only pressing the Alt key and then the shortcut key will not work exactly as the Alt key go with Firefox’s own controls. To use the Facebook shortcut in Firefox, add another key “Shift” before that combination i.e the shortcuts tuns into Shift + Alt + Key for Firefox. For the other browser like Chrome, Opera, Safari, just the “Alt + key” works fine. However, this shortcuts may not be working properly in Internet Explorer.
