User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.8; rv:18.0) Gecko/18.0 Firefox/18.0 Build ID: 20120929030624 Steps to reproduce: 1. Press Cmd+N to open a new browser window, then type http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/private-browsing-browse-web-without-saving-info in the address bar and press Enter. 2. Navigate to the "selecteboxes" next to the firefox logo using the keyboard (tabkey) 3. Try to change OS and fx-version. Actual results: It's not possible to change the value using the keyboard, it's possible when using the mouse. Expected results: It should be possible to change the value using only the keyboard. This is a Level A Guideline in WCAG 2.0 and I think you really should follow this giudeline. http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-WCAG20-20081211/#keyboard-operation

We don't seem to be using selectbox anymore. I'll file a bug to remove it from our repo.
