Try the ; (focus) key. If it's a frame or iframe, this will let you focus it. Try the sequence 'n ;' and select a link inside the node. If you focus something inside of a scrollable div, the scroll commands will work on the div. Try isearch, and search for some text inside of the scrollable div. After you end your search, scroll commands will affect the location where the search ended. I haven't looked at the site in question, but this kind of problem affects Conkeror with websites that use 'scrollable divs' as a way to emulate frames. The problem is that there is no way that I know of to programatically find scrollable divs without iterating through every dom node on the page and checking their style rules. This is an area where web standards are really at odds with the idea of using the keyboard as a primary input device. -- John Foerch _______________________________________________ Conkeror mailing list [email protected] https://www.mozdev.org/mailman/listinfo/conkeror
