Hi guys, just a quick question, when browsing the web on my windows mobile 6 device using the click wheel to scroll and using the nav button scrolls through links on a web page, and not the page itself, for example if a page has a few links at the top then a long article in the middle and then more links at the end of the document, scrolling will shoot the screen down skipping the body of the
document to links at the end of the page.

So my question is, can I change this so it instead scrolls a fixed number of lines of the page instead, much like you would epect from your PC using a mouse wheel. :?:

If you are willing to modify your registry, it is easy to do. (You will need a registry editor, like Resco or PHM registry editor). This page tells you how to scroll page up and down instead of from link to link, if you look down the page to the section on Pocket IE:

Note that although the page is labeled WM 5 Registry tweaks, many work on WM 6 as well, and I can attest that specifically the one for Pocket IE scrolling does work on WM 6, as I have done it.

There are also touchflo (not really touchflo, but something like it) add-ons on XDA.

Freeware: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=338143

and there's SPB Pocket Plus 4, which can scroll pages for you al ot more easily than with a click-wheel. I use this and skweezer and have a lot of fun reading stuff with even vanilla PIE.

Cheers.
