1220618 - When input with cursor in it is removed, scrolling the page via arrows stops working

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Toolkit :: Form Manager, defect, P2)

Description

[ssba5206]

Attachment: FF popup bug reducing.html

User Agent: Opera/9.80 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) Presto/2.12.388 Version/12.17

Steps to reproduce:

The problem is described in the attached file (it can be reproduced there). In short, an input (input type="text") with the cursor (blinking vertical line) inside it should be removed (this.parentNode.removeChild(this), in the example onkeypress enter). After that, press up/down arrow


Actual results:

Scrolling of the page doesn't work. If FF gets out of focus (via alt+tab or any other method) and gets back into focus, scrolling begins to work again.


Expected results:

Scrolling of the page should work again once the input element is removed.
----
A workaround is appreciated as much as fixing this.

I hope the test file is enough self-explanatory.

It works for me on Firefox 102.
