179108 - Can't type in any web page generated input text fields.

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Camino Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Lee Warren]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.2; Mac_PowerPC)
Build Identifier: Chimera 0.6.0 page txt fields

Any website that I go to in Chimera will not allow me to type in any of the page's text 
boxes (i.e. for searching, account information, like this box). I tried nearly every popular 
search site I could think of (Hotbot, excite, yahoo, etc.) I also tried Apple's and Hotmail\'s 
websites and all of these had the same problem. I was able to click on the field to bring 
up the place marker (verticle blinking line) but when I began to type no text would appear 
nor would the place marker move.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to any site with a text field for searching, adding information, etc.
2.Click on a text field.
3.Attempt to enter text

Actual Results:  
No text was entered into the field even though it was selected.

Expected Results:  
Expected to have text apear as it was typed in.

I have been using Chimera builds on a daily basis to enter data into web forms.

I have never had this problem.

Most recently (working fine): 2002111504 and 10.2.2

Reporter: what Input menu settings were you using at the time? Obviously, typing
in input fields works for almost everyone else.

Marking this WFM; reopen if you can still reproduce it.
