5709 - [DOGFOOD] Up/down arrow keys not moving caret just scrolling document

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

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

Description

[Chris Petersen]

Version:Apprunner.
Build:April 29th (1999042908)
Platform: All
Expected Results:The I beam cursor should move it position based on the arrow key
that is pressed. For example, The I-beam cursor should move to the next sentence
above it's current position.
What I got: Pressing the up or down arrow key will scroll the document and not
move the cursor's position.
Steps to reproduce:
1) Open Appruner and select Editor from the Tasks menu.
2) Position the I beam cursor in a sentence.
3) Press up or down arrow key. The cursor doesn't move from it's original
location but the document will scroll.

I have some of this working but not to anyones satisfaction i am sure. I will
hold in my tree until m8.  Once this bug is fixed alot of other related
(no-mans-land selection, triple click feature ect) will be banged out. highest
priority for m8

updown should be artificially working now, if it scrolls as well, that will be
fixed with help from pixley i believe.

what I see today is the up/down arrows BOTH move the selection and scroll the
window.  Either Mike's event handling code isn't reporting that it handled the
keystroke, or joki's code is ignoring mike's attempts to consume the event.

ok the caret moves fine now i think. the scrolling will be hacked to do the
right thing soon. until we get keybindings working anyway
