Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout: Form Controls, defect)

Description

[Wesha]

Under certain circumstances, there are problems with input field receiveing
focus. Example: go to https://lasallena.com. The cursor is blinking in the input
field, but keystrokes are not passing through until you click on that field
manually.

Additional info: exact sequence to reproduce this bug.

0. Create a shortcut to https://lasallena.com on your Quick Launch panel (or
   wherever you wish).
1. Open your favorite website in Mozilla.
2. Click the shortcut. Another Mozilla window opens. At that moment, press
   Alt-Tab to switch to the other Mozilla window and enjoy your website for a
   while.
3. Press Alt-Tab again to return to Mozilla window that has finished loading
   LaSalle page.
4. See cursor blinking in "Customer ID:" box.
5. Type anything. Keystrokes don't come through. :(
6. Click that box with your mouse and type. This time, works fine.

If your build id => Build ID: 2002041711

That means that you're using a build from april 17.
I'd suggest that you download a current version because bugs are fixed daily.

This is also WFM too on XP latest build May 9.  Thanks :-)

Have just tried in Windows 2000 Pro, Mozilla Build ID: 2002050904 (latest for today)

The bug still exists.

1. Create shortcut to https://lasallena.com on Quick Launch panel.
2. Run Mozilla.
3. Open new Mozilla window (Ctrl-N). Then, drag & drop the said shortcut to it.
   DO NOT DO ANYTHING ELSE in that window! Typing anything in Location bar,
   for instance, eliminates the bug.
4. Quickly switch to the original Mozilla window (using the Taskbar).
   Go to some website and enjoy it. =^.^=
5. Return to the window you dropped the shortcut to (using the Taskbar).
6. See cursor blinking in "Customer ID:" box.
7. Type anything. Keystrokes don't come through. :(
8. Click that box with your mouse and type. This time, works fine.

Confirming on 1.0 RC2 branch Build ID: 2002051306 Windows 98.

Actual Results: Open https://lasallena.com  in new tab. Notice cursor blinking
in text box. Switch back to Bugzilla tab. Go back to lasallena tab. Notice
cursor not blinking in text box. 

Expected Results: When returning to the lasallena tab, cursor should be blinking
in text box.

The website in question has changed design, and also lotsa stuff got fixed in
Mozilla since May... anyway, this bug can no longer be reproduced.

Closing as WFM.
