Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Core :: DOM: UI Events & Focus Handling, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130

I just upgraded to MacOS 9.2.2 from 8.7 on my PowerBook G3 and Mozillas Event
Handle collapsed.

onkeydown's [e.type] will return "onkeypress" and it's [e.which] do not return
some of the charNum correct. Like the arrows, they now return 0 but correct if
you use onkeyup

This was NOT a problem with OS 8.7!

This is a stupid bug and should be fix fast. It's needed for games and DHTML stuff.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Just type anything on your keyboard

I don't know about e.which, but e.type is a bug in the testcase -- it's using
fun1 for the keypress instead of fun2, thus overwriting the results of keydown.

You can see the effects on www.bes.pt. Under BESnet enter 1234567 next to "no
adesão". Moz1.4 on Linux doesn't do anything. Moz1.4 on w32 submits the form.

I am unable to reproduce this problem without a testcase.  Resolving as invalid.
