This causes submitting uncompleted reports that clutter the database. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Click Help -> Report Broken Website 2. Choose a problem type 3. Move to the Problem Description section 4. Press the 'enter' key Actual Results: The report submits without confirming with the user Expected Results: Either confirm with the user (i.e. confirmation dialog box) or insert a new line character to the text area.
Neil: any recommendations on a good fix for this? Description is an optional field. Is there a way to take the focus off of the "next" button in a wizard? I think that's the problem now.

Ever confirmed: true
Originally the wizard code didn't expect textareas; neither did the dialog code, but it got patched to check for them. Note that the xpfe version of the wizard shouldn't be affected because bug 225563 added an alternative detection method.
What about the toolkit version? I tested and see that Firefox is effected. Are we bringing that fix over? Or is there a good workaround?
I've approved 294290 so hopefully this will be fixed there.
