203117 - unable to scroll View Source window with keyboard (View Source window does not get focus)

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

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

Description

[sairuh (rarely reading bugmail)]

unable to scroll the View Source window with the keyboard (spacebar, arrow keys,
pageUp/Down). this seems to be a regression from brian's checkin for bug 170811,
since this works with the 2003.04.02.08 build, but is broken with 2003.04.03.05.

1. go to a page whose source would be long (ie, scrollable), such as
http://mozilla.org
2. open the source window (i used accel+U).
3. hit spacebar, arrow keys or pageDown/Up to scroll through the window.

results: no scrolling occurs. interestingly, accel+W works to close the window,
and manual find as you type (using / ) both still work.

brian mentioned he's working on a patch --and from a brief glance over his
shoulder, it look like this issue would be fixed. pls do add this bug to the
dependency list for that bug (i don't know the number offhand).

Bah, someone keeps resetting the focused window to chrome, rather than content,
no matter how hard I try (well, the following hack works...)
<window onfocus="document.commandDispatcher.focusedWindow = content;">

It turns out that nsPresShell::CheckForFocus is resetting the focus.
I'm blaming fallout from bug 170811 here, so I'll CC some folks...

Then it's probably the same as bug 201996.

Well, I've given up trying to figure out what CheckForFocus does.
It never finds a windowless document.

this appears fixed with some test builds brian whipped up y'day.

I just tried 1.4beta (2003050714) and it turnes out that I cannot scroll in the browser using 'Page Up' and 'Page Down' and I cannot use the Cursor Keys in form like this one. (Tried with Linux).

Trying the same in the Mail-System, I can scroll using the Keyboard in the folder list, the email list (the subjects), but not in the displayed email-text.

I hope, this is useful information.

This is a really annoying bug - I have to revert to 1.4alpha

oh, re comment 7: that sounds similar to bug 202157. (not sure if it has the
same root cause.)

It is back. I cannot scroll or use type ahead find in view source before
clicking in that window.

Is this still a problem for you, Pi?  I don't see the symptom with 1.6 Final or 
with
  Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8a2) Gecko/20040604

Yes, if I press ctrl-u to open the source windows, neither the scroll keys work
nor typeaheadsearch.

Maybe the summary should say: View Source window does not get focus.
