Hi, In Firefox it is in Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Browsing -> Use autoscrolling If I have that checked, autoscrolling works. You can also try checking the about:config, i.e. point your browser to about:config and write 'autoscroll' into the filter field. In Firefox it is general.autoScroll. Double-click it, if it is not true. Simo -- :r ~/.signature
