Hey everyone, I seem to not be able to use my keyboard arrow keys to scroll up and down on web pages. I know however, that my arrow keys work (they do in MS Word and other programs), but don't work here. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.System Configuration: Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0

The problem was solved by pressing F7, thank you!

fixed mine by pressing the function key only....I guess it depends on your computer, because f4 and f7 didn't work for me

I had the same problem for months and someone told me to press the F4 key and if that doesn't work try the F7 key. Just press it and see if it scrolls, if not go to the next one and try it. Good luck.

Use the letter keys
'A' for right
'S' for down
'D' for left
and
'W' for up

Hope this helps! ;)

that momentarily helped my problem but only because it was tabbing through the items on the screen. but once I clicked again (which I need to do for the game) it doesnt work anymore

I was having similar problems. My up down arrows either wouldn't scroll in firefox or they would jump to the top and the bottom. So after researching, I just tried pressing function keys... and... voila, F7 did the trick. No idea why, but as suggested somewhere above, I'd start at F1 and go to the end (F12) one at a time and see if that does the trick.

My wife's laptop computer (Louise) had the same problem. F7 worked magic!
Thanks!
