Hi Folks,

I have a targa laptop running the (appalling) Vista OS
There are seperate arrow keys on the keyboard

When I am using Firefox, the arrow keys take me to the extreme TOP or BOTTOM of the web-page.

I would like to use the arrow keys to gently scroll up/down through the page.

The help features on Vista talk about the numeric keypad arrows but not the others. None of the suggestions have worked

Any suggestions?
Ta,

S.

I've got Vista (which I have no issues with, by the way) and when I use the arrow keys (numeric or otherwise) it scrolls the screen properly. Are you sure you didn't change the settings somehow?
