every time i try to use the comma in the numblock (eg. to fill in a formular on
a homepage) i get no comma but a "|" (ASCII-Char: 007C - I dont know the name
for it in english, sorry). This is only a bug in Linux, in Firefox for Windows
this bug doesn't exist.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open a formular in a homepage to enter text.
2. use the numbers of the numblock to enter numbers and comma / decimal point.
3. the result: you get a wrong character (|).

Actual Results:  
You can use firefox normaly, only you had to use the key for the comma on the
main keyblock.

The comma-key at the numblock is okay with every other programm I run at Linux.
For your knowledge: I use Suse Linux 9.2
