No need for cmd-enter or ctl-enter. Another good one is hold down Ctl-roll mouse wheel. Makes the text larger. I hit F6 to highlight the url line, type in apple and hit Enter.

This also works in IE. I find it useful since when you use Ctrl L it highlights the entire text already in the box and my natural reaction is to just delete the whole thing.

Cheers, Michael Here are a couple tab navigation shortcuts I find immensely useful:

ctrl pageup = switch to tab immediately left of the currently selected tab
ctrl pagedown = switch to tab immediately right of the currently selected tab

I use the ctrl tab and ctrl shift tab when I need to bounce back and forth between a couple sites, but tend to use the above method most often as I can quickly get to the specific tab I want (I tend to have a lot of tabs open at once).

Cmd 9 always selects the rightmost tab. I think you can substitute Ctrl on the other platforms.
