Details

(Keywords: access, regression) 

Tested with 2001041920, Win98
and a recent Mac build.


1) Go (focus) to some textfields like the Search textfield in the My Sidebar, or
some textfields in the preferences setup window.

2) type some text: for example [UGA]

3) play with the keyboard arrows [<-] and [->]

4) go to the max end, -> many times.

5) Where is the cursor?

Seems like the focus is not in the same object also.
It's working in Netscape 6.01 / Win. added regression.
Is this catfood?

bug 76746? May be fixed already.

Ever confirmed: true
Cursor or caret?
(I'm assuming Marcio meant 'caret'). 

Anyways, not fixed. I actually tried builds on win2k going back to 3/20, and
all of them showed the same behaviour: if you either right-arrow multiple times 
at the end of the text, or if you down-arrow, the caret will disappear, and 
you can no longer navigate with the keyboard. 

Seems like (a) an Editor issue, and (b) an accessibility issue (cc: aaronl).
