Urxvt keyboard scroll

I recently started using i3 window manager. Since this happened the only time I need mouse is to scroll urxvt output.
I know about Shift+PgUp and Shift+PgDown, but it only works if mouse is somewhere over the urxvt.
Is there a way to use urxvt scroll with keyboard, but without a mouse pointer on urxvt?

Re: Urxvt keyboard scroll

if you add

focus_follows_mouse no

to ~/.i3/config then focus won't automagically shift from one window to the next when you move the mouse. this will let you shift+pgup/down. I'm not sure how, if even possible to alter the mouse wheel focus behaviour

Re: Urxvt keyboard scroll

That won't, and that didn't solve the problem, I tried justt to make sure.
The problem is not focusing another windows, for that I have Shift+{Lfet, Right, Up, Down}.
The problem is scrolling a focused urxvt while mouse is on firefox (for example).

Although I like that focus line you posted.
