Version: 58.0a1 Build ID: 20171031220132 User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.13; rv:58.0) Gecko/20100101 OS: Darwin 17.2.0 In google search result page and press the tab key to navigate the focus through elements, you will find that it fails to move the focus to ALL focusable elements. The symptom only happens on macOS, including High Sierra and Sierra.
[Tracking Requested - why for this release]: It's probably an aged issue, to me, it seems a potential accessibility issue, though.

(In reply to Stephen A Pohl [:spohl] from comment #2) > Is this a regression? The eldest Firefox version I could successfully launch on macOS High Sierra(10.13) is 51.0a1 and it's unable to move focus to search items either. It seems not a recent regression.

Track 58- as it's been there for several versions, not a recent regression.

I don't think I'm able to reproduce this anymore. Please reopen this bug if you can still reproduce and please provide an example of a "focusable element" that does not receive focus.

Since this also affects Sierra this bug shouldn't block bug 1379811.
