----------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Fix Version/s: Apache Flex 4.10.0
Checked into develop branch.
> ListBase::findKey is invoked with event.keyCode instead of event.charCode
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLEX-14773
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-14773
> Project: Apache Flex
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: mx: List
> Affects Versions: Adobe Flex SDK 3.0 (Release)
> Environment: Affected OS(s): Windows
> Affected OS(s): Windows XP
> Browser: Firefox 2.x
> Language Found: English
> Reporter: Adobe JIRA
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: easyfix, easytest
> Fix For: Apache Flex 4.10.0
>
>
> Steps to reproduce:
> 1. create a Flex application containing a List control populated with a
> String Array filled with characters O to Z
> 2. run the application and focus the List control
> 3. press the keys F1 to F9 one after another
>
> Actual Results:
> pressing F1 selects the "P", pressing F2 selects the "Q" and so on. Pressing
> F9 selects "X"
>
> Expected Results:
> nothing should get selected
> Additional info:
> This seems to be caused by line 7941 in the ListBase class (default branch of
> the switch block in the keyDownHandler method). There, event.keyCode is
> passed to the findKey method. However, in the findKey method
> String.fromCharCode() is used to get the corresponding character. So instead
> of passing event.keyCode it should pass event.charCode to the method.
> Btw, this only happens in Firefox Browsers as Internet Explorer does not seem
> to pass the F keys to the Flash Player. Also, I'm not sure if this is locale
> specific (I'm running a German Windows XP SP 2)
