Version: 1.2.5 (using KDE KDE 3.5.5) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages Once you have focus on a full article (in a tab), you can use e.g. PgDown and PgUp. If you middle-click on a link that is in the article you're reading, Akregator correctly opens it in a background tab. However, focus is no longer on the article, so you can not use PgDown and PgUp anymore. This occurs at least when using Akregator as a stand-alone application.
Cannot reproduce with Akregator 1.4.50 from SVN trunk.
Of course you can't reproduce this. Nowadays, it's not even possible to use middle click to open a background tab.
ok, can't be reproduced. note: to open a link in a background tab: settings/configure Akregator/Browser
