      Pressing Control-Space take the current web-browser-tab directly to the Speed-Dials.

      The problem is that whatever information or text I have typed on the open-web-browser screen is then lost.

      Sometimes when typing the palm of my hand hits the CONTROL key. If I happen to be typing a SPACE at the same time...all my text is lost.

      Pressing BACK does bring me back to the previous page...but does NOT restore all the text I've typed.

      Is there any way to fix this??

          Go into settings and change your keyboard shortcuts so Ctrl+Space is no longer used to bring up the speed dial.
