35968 - using spacebar after switching to and from the terminal window results in a page down event

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 35952

(Core :: DOM: Editor, defect, P3)

Description

[fstmm]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.2.12-20 i686; en-US; m14) Gecko/20000415
BuildID:    2000041508

after clicking in a text field, switching the application to the terminal window
or any other program, and then switching back to mozilla results in, the space
bar causing a page down when typing is resumed in that text field.  By changing
text fields, the problem stops, and does not resume upon rentry of the text field


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. enter a text field
2. click on another application window
3. reclick in the mozilla window (must be in the window, not the application bar)
4. click in a text field
5. press the <spacebar> or text followed by the <spacebar>


Actual Results:  the browser does a page down (a space is entered in the text
field also).  As many pagedowns are done, as spaces that are entered


Expected Results:  for just the space to be entered into the text field without
a page-down of the browser

One can continue to type in information into the text field, it just will
generally scroll out of view, and thus you can't see what you are typing

Yes, this is another DUP of bug 35952, "[regression] spacebar scrolls page while 
typing in text field". Marking as such.
