Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enter some values in INPUT type="text" field like ('a', 'abc', 'abcd') so autocomplete works. 2. Now delete from that field and start typing like 'ab'. 3. Autocomplete drop down shows up and you go with list using up/down arrow, and then select it by pressing Enter. 4. Whole page got event handler like onkeypress ,if key="enter" submit() or something similar :-) 5. As you press Enter from autocomplete drop down event onkeypress is called. Actual Results: 1. window onkeypress is called 2. value in text field in request is etc. 'ab' and not 'abcd', as i selected using autocomplete dropdown Expected Results: 1. on autocomplete dropdown, onkeypress event should not be could. 2. when you select value using Enter, then next Enter press should call onkeypress <html> <body onkeydown="if(e.wich==13)alert(1);return true;"> <input type="text">bla</input> </body> </html>
