I'm a newbie to mac, having just bought a MBP SR 2.4 and am still adapting to the new interface. One thing I'm trying to find out is if there is a way to page up/down on a mac. For example, I used to be able to push the page up/down button on my Dell laptop and I would be able to scroll a page in Firefox. So far, I've tried all sorts of keyboard combinations to try to page up/down with no luck.

Is this possible? If so, how do you do it? Thanks in advance

fn + page (the up/down arrow keys)

In Firefox you can press the spacebar to page down, though there's no one key for paging up. Use the page up/down keys like the above says for more control.

Thanks guys! I knew there was a way to do this! I guess I didn't try every combination altho' I could swear I tried the fn key too... guess not. This is improving my mac experience every day. :D
