OK, apparently I didn't get the memo on the hotkey changes. I checked the list, but couldn't locate it.
I'm trying the old ALT+Layer Select to outline select the item per that layer.
What's the updated method?

memo?
hotkey changes?
List?
Alt+Layer?
I'm having difficulty understanding exactly what it is you are trying to acheive. Are you trying to select the pixels in a layer as per the "Select Transparency" option in the right-click flyout?
If so the shortcut is Ctrl +click in the thumbnail.
Hope this is what you were looking for.
Chris.
PS: I notice that in the CS3 BETA "Select Transparency" can been renamed to "Select Pixels" (which is what it does)

I solved this. Basically I wasn't seeing the CTRL+Layer to put a selection on the item inside it.
For some reason it wasn't working..

starting in cs2 you need to crtl-click the thumbnail in the layer palette. before that you could control click anywhere on the layer.

Control + Click to select contents on a layer does not work (it just de-selects the layer) what is the new short cut for this action or do I not have something turned on correctly?

Thumbnail!!
(as at least two others have pointed out.) Just Ctrl-clicking the layer doesn't work any more.
