Delete key + browser "back"

I am using OS X and Firefox 1.5. On my Windows machine, when I press the delete key on the keyboard it is the same as clicking the browser "back" button (go back one page).

How can I get my Mac to do this?
 
This was a feature of Firefox on OS X until the first Release Candidates of 1.5 removed it. However, it is back with the general 1.5 release available now.
 
The "backspace" goes back, not "delete," unless you have it set like that.

Yeah, except a Mac keyboard doesn't have a "backspace". It has two "delete" keys. Isnt there a way to set up a keyboard shortcut in OS X, to get firefox to do this?

Click to expand...

In most programs the backspace key functions as the delete key and vice versa, except in word processors. I don't know that shortcut yet but i would be very happy to as this comes in handy alot.
