1096628 - keydown on select doesn't select <option> which is dynamically generated onkeydown

Status: NEW

(Core :: DOM: Events, defect, P5)

Description

[Charlie]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:32.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/32.0
Build ID: 20140923175406

Steps to reproduce:

In a select with no options, we populate the options on keydown of that select.  If the key pressed matches the first character of one of the populated options, that option should be selected.  This is the case in IE8+, Chrome, etc.

Actual results:

The options are loaded, but the "search" code is not run, and the first option remains selected.


Expected results:

It should have selected the option if it matches the key selected.

If you could double-check with local builds, that'd be much appreciated.

sorry but my local build fails with build errors in NSS probably because I recently updated my toolset to MSVC13 :-(
