You can use Alt+Left_Arrow to go to previous page and Alt+Right_Arrow to go forward. Does this work in 3.0 too? -- நன்றிகளுடன், விக்னேஷ். http://krvignesh.wordpress.com ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

This might be a problem in earlier versions which has been fixed later.
