I found however that there was the following in the /etc/X11/Xresources file from the installation: ! /etc/X11/Xresources ! ! This is the global Xresources file. It is used by both xdm and xinit. ! ! Fix Motif client handling of backspace/delete ! *XmText.translations: #override\n\ <Key>osfDelete: delete-previous-character() *XmTextField.translations: #override\n\ <Key>osfDelete: delete-previous-character() Now this fix seams to do just the opposite what we want. Therfore I've commented it out. After restarting the X-Server and netscape the problem was solved. Perhaps one can avoid the server restart when substituting delete-previous-character() by delete-next-character() above, executing "xrdb -merge /etc/X11/Xresources" and restarting netscape. Hope this will be of some help, Markus. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
