keycode 233 = XF86Back
keycode 234 = Forward

Doesn't work either. Or should I have made those entries somewhere else?

Cheers, Leon.

Hey list!

In ~/.Xmodmap I have added the following

! Browser Forward and Backward keys
keycode 233 = F22
keycode 234 = F21

to enable the forward and backward keys (in the arrow keys panel on the
bottom right) for browsing. This used to work well in Firefox until
version 1.0.6. However, in the latest 1.0.7 this doesn't seem to work
anymore.

Anyone a clue as to what is wrong? And how to restore this? Have a T41
running Slackware-current.
