When I load this page which includes a Java Applet, Firefox becomes unresponsive
to me switching tabs. I can create new tabs and close tabs, but I can't switch
to other tabs using the mouse. Also, the address bar displays entered addresses
in reverse. For example, if it type "site", "etis" is displayed in the address bar.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://aflauctions.com.au/16.htm
2. Hit Ctrl-T to create a new tab.
3. Try and switch back to original tab.
4. Type an address into the address bar.
Actual Results:  
After step 3: Can't switch back to original tab.
After step 4: Address appears backwards

Expected Results:  
Allowed me to switch tabs, display the address correctly.
