32225 - no effect / no cursor if you click in the "password" section of the login/password dialogue box (may be related to # 13213?)

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 27784

(Core :: DOM: UI Events & Focus Handling, defect, P3)

Description

[Andrew Sullivan]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.7 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.14 i686)
BuildID:    2000030321

I do not seem able to enter passwords when a login/password dialogue box pops up
from a site.  I enter my username without trouble; but I cannot even get a
cursor.  I don't know, but this might be related to bug 13213 (crash/assert from
hitting tab in password box).  The epixtech site is not the only one where I've
run into this.  The version of Mozilla I'm using I installed from the *.deb
package available in Debian-frozen (2.2) right now (M14), so this might actually
be an artifact from that, but I doubt it.  This is also not a problem of just
hiding text: if I enter the password, I just get return to the same dialogue.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to the site
2. Enter a user name
3. Click in "password" text-entry box.
4. Try entering a password.
5. Click "Ok"

Actual Results:  No cursor.  After "Ok" the name/password dialogue re-appears.

Expected Results:  Cursor, so I could enter the password.  Entry to the site.

Debian 2.2 (potato: frozen).  M14 installed from deb package.

This is fixed.  Can you try a newer build?

I think you accidentally resolved as a dup with the wrong bug; 27295 looks 
nothing like this.  However, it's still a dup of 27784;
