While tidying up D&A - the random keyboard masher's forum of choice - I found something new (or at least, new to me). CTRL + the "Delete message" button opens the confirmation in a new window - so with a bunch of 'em, hold CTRL down, click each button, then use CTRL+TAB to confirm each of 'em without having to move the mouse about so much.
That's brilliant - saves a little time when batch deleting "Message Closed" messages.
A little tiny change would help though: if the CTRL key is held down when confirming the delete, the newly cleansed page is opened in a new tab as well. If it could remain in the current tab, it would be one less operation: CTRL+click "delete" on six closed messages, then CTRL+TAB to visit each confirmation box, and don't move the mouse off the confirm button, just click it, and press CTRL+F4.
At present, I have to remember to release CTRL before I click and then hit it again for the "close this tab" command, or I get a new tab opening with the rest of the closed messages in it and have to CTRL+TAB past it.

I've been puzzling over this one.
First: this may sound dumb but D&A? Not sure what that is
Second: it sounds like this is actually a browser thing.
Let me know which page your own and I can see if I can think through something to make life easier.

As Nelek said: Design and Architecture Discussion Boards[^]
Last couple of weeks we've been getting a load of the same stuff in there - a dozen or so random keystrokes as a message.
Probably, it's a spambot in training but it leaves a fair amount of detritus around in the form of "Message Closed" filling half a page. It'd just be nice to reduce the RSI when deleting 'em!

Gotcha
What you're seeing is standard browser keystroke handling. I'd love to take credit, but I'd be lying.
As an aside: it being slightly difficult to delete is actually by design. We had issues many, many moons ago where people got a little trigger happy.

Damn!
How about ... enabling the ENTER key to delete? CTRL+ENTER isn't browser behaviour (except in the address bar, where it adds ".com" and goes to the address).

There's something wrong with link to OriginalGriff's tip: Transferring information between two forms, Part 2: Child to Parent
Check the link: Transferring information between two forms, Part 2: Child to Parent
When you click on it, you'll be "transferred" to 404 Spoon not Found site:

I'm using it quite often while answering QA questions. Can you fix it?
BTW: other tips about transferring data between forms are OK.

Hmmm. It seems to work for me. Could you please try clearing your cache and trying again?
Thanks,

This was very strange. I tried to open OG's tip on Firefox and MS Edge. Both with the same result...
I tried to use CTRL+F5 , but it didn't help in FireFox. So, finally i followed by this instruction: How to clear the Firefox cache | Firefox Help

In my experience, Ctl-F5 doesn't clear the cache. It's more an instruction to reload the page from the source and ignore the cache.
It doesn't always work - perhaps related to complexity in the back-end so you're reload may be correctly executed but the data request goes to where it was, before, as that's still cache related. Now you know how to really clear the cache.
Something else, as a hint, that I've found useful: and an argument to the URL, like ?xyz=123 or &xyz=123 if there are other arguments. This informs the browser that it needs to look for updated data (or so it thinks).
It can be stubborn. Where I work, with virtually everything web-base. My stuff all include a do-not-cache directive in every header.

Well, it looks like the 404 page gets cached. Deleting cache has helped.
That said, maybe the it would be possible to change the 404 page in a way so that browser is not allowed to cache it?

Linking an SO article is a good way to get your account closed.

I would not say closed...
maybe just ignored?

Linking what?

Well, choosing "my articles" from the dropdown menu was the very first thing I did.
If it showed the article, I would not even mention it. But clicking those links lead to the url with 404. The only thing that really helped was hard cache reset.... Which probably means 404 page is cached while article page is not, or something like that.
That is why I find the situation confusing...
But really, all is fine now. Thank you.

Be patient. I suspect the site is still recovering from yesterday's outage. It may also help if you clear your browser cache as you may just be getting the 404 page in the browser.
