not sure if this is already known, but pls dup/reassign as needed. currently seeing it using 2001.08.13.0x-comm bits on linux and winnt, and 2001.08.14.08-comm bits on mac 9.1 [emul]. 1. go to a page with textfields [preferably where the cursor isn't automatically put into field for you, though]. http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/query.cgi would suffice. 2. sanity check: hit the arrow keys, pageUp, pageDown, spacebar --they should work as expected. 3. now, click into a textfield. 4. repeat step (2). result: unable to scroll/move using the keyboard. must use the mouse [grabbing and moving scrollbars, clicking scrollbar arrows, etc.] in order to navigate in the web page.
serious regression, nominating for 0.9.4. i'll also check today's build, however, to see if this is still a problem...
There was a regression like this a bit earlier this week, since fixed. Can you try in today's build?

thx, blake --yes, this seems to have been fixed within today's comm bits. addendum to original report, step 3.5: click somewhere outside the textfield so that the web page [not the field] has focus. anyhow, marking wfm.
