User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.6) Gecko/20060728 Firefox/1.5.0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.6) Gecko/20060728 Firefox/1.5.0.6

I am using "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1.0.7" on Mac OS 10.4. The problem i got is that i can not use my keyboard (tab key) to set focus to element as CheckBox, Radio, Droplist, listbox, hyper link. If i use my mouse and click to the control i want to focus, that is fine.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open one site that has Checkbox/Radio/Droplist, listbox, hyperlink as this one: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=341180 
2. Use tab key to move the focus to these control.
Actual Results:  
We can only focus on textbox, the focus didnot come to other control.

Expected Results:  
Focus must be place to controls that have sequence of tabindex.

Tell your OS what you want, and we'll do it. System Preferences, Keyboard &
Mouse, Keyboard Shortcuts, Full keyboard access, or Ctrl-F7 to toggle it back
and forth.

this doesn't work in firefox 1.0.x.  you need to upgrade to a more recent firefox, or take a look at http://kb.mozillazine.org/Accessibility.tabfocus.
