94550 - Understanding Privacy page doesn't respond to page up/down

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Core :: DOM: UI Events & Focus Handling, defect)

Description

[rkc]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC; en-US; rv:0.9.3) Gecko/20010802
BuildID:    200108214

Although the Understanding Privacy documentation opens fine, it does not appear
to receive page up/page down or mouse scrolling events. If one clicks on the
text within the window, then these events are received and the windows scrolls.
On the mac at least, once the window is in the foreground, it has focus, and
should receive these events. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Understanding Privacy
2.Press page down
3.Say "bummer, this doesn't work"
4.Click on window frame
5.Press page down; say "bummer, this still doesn't work"
6.Click on text, notice that nothing visible changed
7.Press page down; say "well I'll be monkey meat, now it works"

Expected Results:  See above

Focus needs to go to the text field when the window is opened. This prevents you
from using the Home/End keys, arrow keys and spacebar to scroll through the
text, too. Clicking anywhere in the field solves the problem.

->goodger, figure out who owns this dialog and make them set initial focus. Danke!

Steve, calling .focus() on the frame that the page is loaded in should fix this.

That didn't work.  Here's the patch I applied and I still have the problem.

->morse, cc bryner.  This is not a showstopper, bug focussing the content would
be nice.

This page no longer exists.  Marking wont-fix.
