This bug is fixed in 20121224 nightly. Neil, would you please look into the copy menuitem too?
Ehsan, sorry again for the other day urge you to review this bug in IRC. I got a reason to worried. Two major sites in China use contenteditable element in part of there service, (In fact, they rank No.1 & No.2 in China and No.5 & No.10 all over the world in Alexa), both are popular things, try imagining as they are Chinese Facebook and Google group, you'll got the picture. I heard complaint about unable to copy and scroll after Fx9.0 was released. I don't want Firefox losing users. I'll would be better have it fixed not only in nightly, but also beta, even release. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/107247 Title: Launchpad bug pages trigger caret browsing in Firefox and other Gecko browsers Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: In Progress Status in Launchpad itself: Fix Released Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in “firefox-3.0” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “firefox-3.5” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: It is possible for a Web page to turn on Firefox's "caret browsing" mode just for that page, such that Firefox displays a cursor in the Web page text and prevents scrolling from working as normal. This should never happen. This bug was triggered by bug 107376 in a previous version of Launchpad, suggesting that the general cause is JavaScript focusing a text field, and then using CSS to hide that field. It seems unrelated to the document.designMode DOM property, because the page did not become editable. Steps to reproduce: 1. In Firefox or Epiphany, open any bug page, such as this one. 2. Wait for the Subscribers box to finish loading. 3. Press the Up or Down arrow keys. What should happen: The page scrolls. What actually happens: A visible caret moves through the page.
