Firefox page up/down broken - fix

[Handruin]

I have had this issue with firefox for the past week where I could not scroll through pages using page up and page down (as well as home and end). Turns out it's due to a setting know as "Caret browsing" as seen here.

I'm posting this in case anyone else has had this issue. I have never heard of this feature before now and wanted to share.

Ahhhhhhhhhh. So that's what got screwed up on my old computer!

Interesting... I've had this happen before, but I've never knowingly turned on Caret Browsing...

I didn't knowingly enable it either. I may have bumped the "F7" key which is used to enable/disable this feature. Maybe the same thing happened to you at some point?
