Go to mozillaZine login page and press <Tab> repeatedly once the tab stop gets into the <A> ("Change font size") on the top right of the page it is "trapped" there and never moves to other controls/links; this works on IE as intended I believe as it doesn't get "trapped". Not only does it get trapped on the <A>, but then, if you press Tab or Shift + Tab to try to move, it will actually press that button and change the font size.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to http://forums.mozillazine.org/ucp.php?mode=login
2. press <Tab> repeatedly once the tab stop gets into the <A> ("Change font size") on the top right of the page it is "trapped" there and never moves to other controls/links
Actual Results:  
Pressing <Tab> once it gets stuck would press that button and change the font size.

Expected Results:  
Pressing <Tab> won't get stuck.
