1203637 - Washington Post eats keyboard shortcuts

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

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

Description

[Sören Hentzschel]

Attachment: screenshot

Firefox 40.0.3 on OS X 10.11 Beta with a new profile:

STR:

1. install an adblocker. I used Adblock Plus with the default filter list
2. go to https://www.washingtonpost.com
3. click an article
4. make sure you see the "To keep reading, please enter your e-mail address" window (see screenshot)
5. try for example to close the tab or to open a new tab with the keyboard

Expected:

You can close the tab (cmd + w), open a new tab (cmd + t), go to url bar (F6) or copy text (cmd + c) with keyboard.

Actual:

Nothing happens, no keyboard shortcut works.

In my screenshot there is another text: "your ad blocker is on". There seems to be different dialogs. But it happens with both dialogs.

They changed their website, the issue is no longer reproducible.
