364234 - Unable to edit an editable field in this testcase [regression]

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 364352

(Core :: Disability Access APIs, defect)

Description

[Wayne DeAngelo]

Env: Minefield (nightly build 20061217), WindowEyes 6.0 (not required though)

Problem: When in edit mode, arrowing to a editable field within a DHTML spreadsheet you are not able to edit the field.

Steps to recreate:
1. Start Firefox and WindowEyes (not needed to recreate problem), load the url: http://www.mozilla.org/access/dhtml/spreadsheet
2. Arrow to an editable field, press enter and try changing the field.
3. You will noticed that when pressing enter the field will change to a string "undefined".

Note: This problem occurs with or without a screen reader running, also this is a regression since it work for me on Bon Echo.

This is definitely a regression in Minefield. We could either try to find the regression window or create a minimal testcase.

Martijn, are you willing to help us narrow this one down?

I needed to do shift->reload for testing to get the regression range, reliably.
This regressed between 2006-11-26 and 2006-11-27:

I think this is a regression from bug 309438 somehow, because with the 2006-11-26 build, I get application/xhtml+xml as the document type, while for builds after that, I get text/html as the document type.

Changing the network.http.accept.default pref from:
text/html,application/xhtml+xml;q=0.9,application/xml;q=0.8,*/*;q=0.7
to:
application/xhtml+xml, text/html;q=0.9,application/xml;q=0.8,*/*;q=0.7
fixes it for me.
