WFM with the latest trunk nightly Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X
Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8a) Gecko/20040504 Firefox/0.8.0+.

Reporter, were you using a trunk of branch nightly? What keyboard are you using
(iBook or a normal Apple "extended" keyboard, or whatever)?

I'm using the 'latest-trunk' build
(http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/Firefox-mac.dmg.gz
) ... Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8a)
Gecko/20040504 Firefox/0.8.0+ still isn't working.

Keyboard is the "Apple USB Keyboard" - 1st generation, vintage 1999, the "mini"
that got a lot of criticism.  Note these keys all work in all other apps,
including Mozilla (1.7b build 20040421 last I checked).  Got any clues for
diagnosing this?

K.M., can you reproduce this using a new Firefox user profile?

I redid my profile last week, from scratch... so I didn't think that was it...

But, I see that I'm wrong.  I added two accessibility settings that I couldn't
live without, and now see that this actually is an interaction with the
'accessibility.browsewithcaret' setting.  If the setting is on, the pgup and
pgdn keys do not work, if it's turned off this works normally.  

This looks like it may be related to Bug 206633 - should I close this one and
update that one?

(Sorry for not rethinking those settings before reporting this!)

If this only occurs with browsewithcaret set to true then yes, I think this is
probably a dupe of bug 206633. In which case we should resolve this as a dupe
and just leave 206633 open.
