Yes sorry. I use firefox-3.5.1 and I also thought should activate a hperlink. I use Xfce4 desktop and and the default/linux/x86/2008.0 profile I did look at the keyboard shortcuts listed in firefox help file but none of them appears to be for activating a hyperlink. If your enter key activates hyperlinks, please try some of the links here: http://www.lynda.com/home/ViewCourses.aspx?lpk0=3D391 And let me know if it works there for you.
