164180 - unable to tab btwn toolbar and bookmarks in the sidebar

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Camino Graveyard :: Accessibility, defect)

Description

[sairuh (rarely reading bugmail)]

tested using 2002.08.21.05. i'm unable to tab btwn toolbar and bookmarks in the
sidebar.

1. open the sidebar (cmd-/).
2. click in the bookmarks region --in the whitespace below the last bookmark,
just to bring focus to the sidebar.
3. hit the tab key to cycle through the sidebar's toolbar buttons and then into
the bookmark list itself.

results: only able to cycle through the following widgets --unable to tab to
bookmarks themselves (unless i click to select one beforehand):

* the tab widget for the bookmarks sidebar panel
* any active buttons: add page, create new folder

concerning mouseclicking in step (2) above: i've filed 164193 for keyboard
navigation btwn the browser and sidebar.

actually, i can use the keyboard to focus a bookmark item in the listing.

after tabbing through the toolbar buttons in the sidebar, there's a "dead spot"
--no visual indication of focus. at this point, hit the up or down arrow key:
this will highlight (focus) the topmost or bottommost (respectively) bookmark items.

Closing as INVALID; the sidebar is gone.
