BUILD: linux 2001-03-14-05 and win2k 2001-03-10-08 STEPS TO REPRODUCE: 1) load attached testcase 2) hit tab once. Watch the first anchor get focused 3) hit tab a second time. Watch the second anchor get focused 4) hit tab a third time. Watch the third anchor _not_ get focused EXPECTED RESULTS: can tab to anchor inside absolutely positioned div ACTUAL RESULTS: after tabbing for a while, we come back to the URL bar, and we never get to the anchor inside absolutely positioned div
Attached file testcase
