User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:22.0) Gecko/20130422 Firefox/22.0 Steps to reproduce: Load a PDF in the built-in PDF viewer, e.g.: http://www.powerstream.com/p/GMB300910.pdf Press the keyboard space bar. Actual results: Nothing; not even after clicking in the window to give it focus. Expected results: The PDF should scroll down one page. Target of opportunity: searching with the / key also doesn't work in PDFs, but that's been broken since the built-in PDF viewer was created, whereas the space scrolling issue just started in Firefox 22.
Confirmed. With the inbuilt PDF reader, space soes not work. With Foxit reader plugin, pressing space bar does page-down.
This works for me on FF 20.0 on Mac 10.8.3, but only after I click in the window for focus. mayankleoboy, since you were able to confirm it, I'll move it to NEW and into the PDF Viewer component. Thanks!

Ever confirmed: true
To clarify, this bug only appeared within the past week or maybe two weeks, in Firefox 22.
Issue was already present in firefox_22.0~a2~hg20130414r133397; I don't have earlier builds of 22 to test.

This happened after the update last night for me. FF 22
Works in the latest Aurora 24 (just before entry into the beta stream). Please confirm and mark fixed if this works for you.

This issue is fixed for me in Firefox 24. Firefox 22 and 23 were broken. Apparently upstream has applied a workaround to make the space bar work in Firefox.
