When I navigate to this page from a link, the keyboard navigation (pg Up, pgDown, etc) do not work.
On Firefox 2, and IE when I navigate to this page, then I press PageDonw, or ArrowDown, the page will scroll down.  But when Firefox 3 is used, I need to click in the page and only then will the meyboard navigation work.


Reproducible: Always

1. Open Facebook (www.facebook.com).
2. Click on the MobWars link (http://apps.facebook.com/mobwars/).
3. Keyboard PageDown (or ArrowDown).

Actual Results:  
After step 3, nothing Happens.


Expected Results:  
After step 3, the page should (or at least used to) scroll down.


Using only standard theme.  The only plug-in I use is the Google Toolbar.

After all this time, it seems that something has fixed this in the mean time.
