(Firefox :: Keyboard Navigation, defect)

Description

[Satish]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko/2008070208 Firefox/3.0.1

The F6 key is supposed to move across the frames including the Location Bar. But when I press the F6 for the first time, the focus moves from the current web page to Location Bar, then I press it again and the focus is on web page. Then again I press F6 any number of times, but the focus will not go to Location Bar.

In IE it promptly goes to Location Bar, after traversing the available frames. In case of the below example, www.mozilla.com, there is only one frame (the web page). Press the F6 first time, focus is on Location Bar, next time on web page, next time on Location Bar, and it goes on smoothly.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://www.mozilla.com
2. Press F6, the focus is on Location Bar.
3. Press F6 again, the focus is lost on Location Bar.
4. Press F6 again. Focus does not come to Location Bar at all.
Actual Results:  
Focus does not come to Location Bar at all.

Expected Results:  
Focus should alternate between the web page and the Location Bar.
