User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041122 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041122 Firefox/1.0

Example:
Focussing the element and click up/down should also trigger the coming up of the
alert box, but it doesnt.

<select onchange='alert("test");'>
<option value="1">Test1</option>
<option value="1">Test2</option>
<option value="1">Test3</option>
<option value="1">Test4</option>
</select>

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.



Expected Results:  
The onchange event should also be called when the user uses the up/down keys.

I'm not shure if the bug is critical, but some pages will have to deal with data
that loses integrity.
