388328 - Keyboard navigation keys do not work in rich-textbox (javascript)

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 386189

(Core :: DOM: UI Events & Focus Handling, defect)

Description

[u279076]

When entering information into a rich-textbox, I cannot use any of the standard keyboard navigation keys (home, end, pgup, pgdn, arrows).  I can only reproduce this in Ubuntu 7.04 using the latest nightly trunk.  I remember this working a few days ago, so I will go back and try to find when it regressed.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Using Ubuntu 7.04 and the latest nightly trunk, navigate to gmail or qmo
2. Put the focus on the rich-textbox.
For gmail, use the content box for a new email message
For qmo, use the body box for a new forum post
3. Type in gibberish (a couple pages worth is good so you can test pgup, pgdn)
4. Try to use the keyboard navigation keys

Actual Result:
Keyboard navigation keys are unresponsive

Expected Result:
Keyboard navigation keys should perform their designated function

Reproducible:
Always

I have had this bug tested on Mac OSX, Vista, WinXP SP2, Fedora 7, and 2 different Ubuntu 7.04 installs (one on my laptop, one on a QA lab computer).  This bug can only be reproduced on the Ubuntu 7.04 installs.

I am currently working on a regression window.

This appears to have regressed between 2007062705 (works) and 2007062804 (doesn't work).

With that regression range, that would mean that contentEditable regressed this, making it a dupe of bug 386189.
