can't enter characters such as ê, ñ, ë.... in a flash plugin text field.
In fact, it's not possible to enter characters that require two keys to be
pressed, such as : ñ (~ + n).
It works with Mozilla 1.2.1 !

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open a page containing a flash movie clip with an editable text field (see
http://www.lachoseinteractive.net/en/community/mozilla/bugs/ for demonstration
purpose)
2. Try to insert a ñ character or any character that requires two key presses
3. You just can't !

Actual Results:  
It beeps... and no char is entered.

Expected Results:  
The ñ character should be inserted properly.

It works with Mozilla 1.2.1  but not with Mozilla 1.3a or b or Phoenix.
I think it's a Mac OS X specific bug.

Could you download builds between 20030210 20030120 to narrow down when this
first started? Thanks!
