User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:17.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/17.0 Build ID: 20121128204232 Steps to reproduce: Tried to hit enter to submit comment on Facebook. Attempted to use up/down arrow keys to scroll. Actual results: Whenever I have a PDF opened within Firefox and not in the tab in which I am browsing, keyboard navigation, i.e., up/down to scroll does not work. Additionally, when trying to submit on certain text fields via the Enter/Return key, there is no response. Specifically, while trying to submit a comment on a Facebook post, hitting enter did not submit the comment, but added a carriage return (which is normally added via "alt+enter"). Immediately after closing the tab with an embedded PDF, functionality was restored (NB: scrolling error happens when PDF is not embedded too; have not tested enter bug with PDF that was not embedded) . Expected results: Pressing up/down should scroll a webpage and pressing enter to submit should send a query not add a carriage return on Facebook commenting text boxes.
I was not able to reproduce this issue using new profile on: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:17.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/17.0(20121128204232) and Latest Nightly Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:20.0) Gecko/20121210 Firefox/20.0(20121210030747) Gabriel can you please try to reproduce this in safe mode?
Gabriel, please answer to comment 2. Does that work for you?
Is the PDF opened using the Firefox’s own JavaScript PDF Viewer (pdf.js), or using a plug-in?
I couldn't replicate this again. Please close.
