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

Using the tabindex attribute on form elements should allow you to specify
the tab order.

This shouldn't help, and is likely to add confusion if there is  
anything on the page other than form controls.

I assume you are using a Mac?

Go into the OS X System Preferences, then Keyboard  Mouse, then  
Keyboard and set Full keyboard access to All controls.

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,

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.

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.
