Re: R: [WSG] Firefox skips dropdown and multi-select list with tabbing (?)

2008-05-05 Thread Ben Dodson
If it's a mac issue, the most usual cause is that full keyboard access isn't
enabled.  Solve this by going to System Preferences - Keyboard  Mouse -
Keyboard Shortcuts - select the All Controls radio button in the full
keyboard access section at the bottom of the pane (not in the scrollable
area).
This drove me nuts in Firefox on a mac for ages (especially why trying to
use phpMyAdmin which requires tabbing through a lot of radio buttons that
Firefox would just ignore!)
Hope that solves your problem :-)

Ben

Ben,

Thanks for the tips. I thought I had the full universal access turned  
on, but was missing the full keyboard access. Geee, so much for Apple  
universal access - just like the one button mouse ! totally useless.

Ok, I think I need to modify my comment a bit. It looks like Firefox  
has a dependency on Mac's keyboard access - it didn't occur to me to  
check out the System Preferences that something needed to enable  
because Safari has no problem.

Hi tee,

Here you are,
http://74.52.59.43/index.php

You need to add a product, then either use 'get a quote' (simple form)  
or go ahead with 'proceed to checkout', then select 'checkout as  
guest', continue, so that it brings you to step2, Billing information,  
where you can have a better tabbing starts from First Name field.


Safari picks up the dropdown list from State/Province and Country. As  
for for the Multi-select field that I menationed also not working, the  
working example is in the admin, therefor I can't show you.


Just few minutes ago I wake up from my dream that maybe I was missing  
the 'option:focus' - though I never remembering see it before, I added  
it anyway. No luck!


input:focus, select:focus, textarea:focus, option:focus  {
background: #ced5e1;color:#333;}

My suspicion are
1) The Prototype accordion or the script that pulls the States and  
Countries' value is causing it, but I kind of rule it out.
2) Some input fields (Name, Email, Addresses) are showing light yellow  
background color. Is this the default of Firefox or a Developer  
toolbar plugin doing the trick?  And somehow cripples the tab focus on  
select.


Didn't test them from IE and Opera yet as I don't remember they have  
tab feature.

I believe that this is a mac issue rather than firefox. I am guessing 
you are using mac - great too see you are using magento.. As an avid 
magento fan good too see more and more sites coming about.

Ah, the famous tweakmag :) I am delighted to know  you are here, as  
that means your extension is of high quality :)


OK, Mac issue it is, but if Safari can get it right, it doesn't sound  
like it's Leopoard's problem but rather the Mac version Firefox issue
