Hi,

Please check if Always use the cursor key to navigate within pages is enabled in Tools (Alt + T) > Options > Advanced > General. This option can also be turned on or off by pressing F7.

Hi, Vivek I have read your kind answer regarding using F7 to togle navigation keys. Actually it is not a good idea ( using F7) because it contradicts with MS-WORD spell-checking key ( also F7) and besides F7 shows an alert " F7 toggles active cursor mode. Do you want it to be set ON ( Yes, No)?" I hit: "do not show this alert again" but it is shown me again and again at each F7 pressing. I donna need toggling active cursor mode. It is one more bug in FireFox last v 9.0.1 release.
