If you click on "Window" in the menu bar when Safari is active do you get a menu which includes an item called "Downloads"? It should list a keyboard shortcut next to it. On Snow Leopard it is opt-cmd-L and it works for me. To get the Web Inspector I have to hit opt-cmd-I. Don't know about Tiger. Ian -- Ian Gregory http://www.zenatode.org.uk/

But that is what the OP asked for! (as can be seen in the text you quoted above). Ian -- Ian Gregory http://www.zenatode.org.uk/

That is not what they asked for - they asked for the Downloads window. Ian -- Ian Gregory http://www.zenatode.org.uk/

That is not what I would call it. When I hear "downloads window" I think of the window which displays downloads in progress and allows you to pause or resume them etc. Perhaps the OP will come back and clarify - did they want a keyboard shortcut to open the Downloads folder in a Finder window, or one to open the Downloads window associated with Safari.
