Stop Chrome from scrolling down every time I hit space

Question

In Google Chrome on Fedora 13, how do I keep it from scrolling down every time I hit space?

I have a feeling you won't have much luck with this one mate, it seems to be built in to most web browsers, and I haven't come across a way to change it. No harm in trying though I guess.

Install the shortcut manager extension and bind Space to a different action.

	Not your fault, but that URL doesn't exactly scream out "shortcut manager" to me. – Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams Sep 25 '10 at 19:39
	@Ignacio: That's not surprising, it's a hash of a randomly generated number (a public key). See stackoverflow.com/questions/1882981/… – Gilles Sep 25 '10 at 20:14
	Very informative. I'm guessing that they probably want you to use some sort of search engine to find the extension you care about instead... – Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams Sep 25 '10 at 20:17
	I guess that's the definitive proof that user-friendly URIs have nothing to do with SEO ;-) – Joey Nov 26 '10 at 20:50
	Name is misleading, should be "shortcut key manager" – Moab Feb 17 '11 at 1:46
