I don't know if this is just on the Mac or not, but I like tabbing through forms, but have found that Firefox does not let me do this using other browsers (IE on PC, ugh), that I could easily tab through any and all <input> elements, including <select> elements. If it does do it on Linux/PC, I would feel the same for those versions as well. My memory is a little foggy, but I seem to remember that on Firefox for Linux that it did this also... A complete list of elements I've found that can't be tabbed to: 1. INPUT Elements: a. type=checkbox b. type=radio c. type=image d. type=button 2. SELECT Elements Anyway, I really do feel that not being able to navigate competely through forms with just the keyboard is quite limiting, especially on forms where there are a lot of the elements that you can't tab through. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Using Firefox on Mac... :) Actual Results: I couldn't tab through a form... Expected Results: I feel that I should be able to tab through all form elements.
This is on purpose from bug 187508. You have to change your system preferences.

Well, I do have Full Keyboard Access turned on in System Prefs (and I always have). It might have been turned on after I first installed Firefox, but it's been on since a few days after I bought my laptop. I even ran /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin -p and created a brand new profile, still nothing. So there is a bug, somewhere. I'm running OSX 10.3.8.
