Details

(Whiteboard: [tabbing])

1. Load http://ureg.netscape.com/iiop/UReg2/reg/register in Mozilla. 2. Click on a form field in the middle of the form. 3. Press shift-tab. Result: focus disappears. Expected: focus goes to previous textbox. Tabbing at this point puts focus in the location bar.

This is a dup of bug 36217 "Tabindex attribute not working with A, BUTTON, or INPUT elements." because that form uses TABINDEX.
well, let's mark it that way then! *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 36217 ***

Testcase (thanks for the hint, hj) that shows shift-tab not working: <tr> <td><input TABINDEX="7" TYPE="text"></td></tr> <tr><td><input TABINDEX="8" TYPE="text"></td></tr> <tr><td><input TABINDEX="9" TYPE="text"></td></tr> If the whitespace between the <tr> and the <td> at the top is removed, shift- tab while in *either* of the second or third textboxes goes to the first textbox. Verif dupe. I've a comment to the other bug to check this testcase when it's fixed.

That other bug is fixed, but this testcase is still not functional. It looks like it that you need to reopen this bug. Also note that bug 68703 is a dup of this bug.
Bug 68703 also has a test case attached.

The bug this is marked as a dup of was fixed, but this is still broken. Reopening. Cc blake. Want to fix this one too?

Bryner, this is probably already part of the tabbing fix you're working out.
