7.0a1 (2011-06-22) 1. Load a newtwitter page where some of the tweets have hyperlinks, such as https://twitter.com/jruderman 2. Focus one of the links (e.g. by selecting nearby text and pressing Tab) 3. Press Enter. Result: nothing happens Expected: open the link in a new tab Works correctly in Chrome. Dunno if this is a Firefox bug or a Twitter bug.
Is this a regression?
Same thing happens in Firefox 4.0.1 and Nightly (7.0a1). So I guess not.
WFM on Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:8.0a1) Gecko/20110711 Firefox/8.0a1 It works on any link in Firefox but not on Twitter so in my opinion this is not a bug.
Considering comment3, setting resolution to Resolved WFM.
