Most fields under "Votre demande:" section are inaccessible, except the drop-downs and the larger ones at the bottom.

Can you check if this form is using JS?

Comment 3

[Marco Castelluccio [:marco]]

This is most likely using JS.

Bug 1719464 could be a workaround for this.

The fields are now accessible thanks to the workaround, but let's keep this bug open for when we'll remove the workaround.
