Google Chrome Keyboard Shortcut fail

When a popup window is thrown up by Chrome and you try to close it with the key combination, "Alt+Space+C", Chrome does nothing. It will simply highlight the option of "Copy". When you press "C" again, it will highlight "Close" option. But no action.

(I don't run Windows, so can't test this, but...)

When there is more than one menu option with the same shortcut, press ENTER when the highlight is over the one you want.

Roger,

I know that! But pressing one more key some how beats the purpose of keyboard shortcuts, don't you think?
