Accesskey attribute work good in Internet Explorer, but in Firefox and Netscape exist following bugs: See my site Most (The Bridge - Magazine for education, science and culture, Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina), encoding="utf-8", table with Accesskey description (Info page): http://www.most.ba/info.aspx Pages in Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian in Latin and Cyrillic alphabet. Latin pages: If I use accesskey="f" will work accesskey with Cyrillic letter "c". Example: http://www.most.ba/082/000.aspx Cyrillic pages: If I use accesskey="b" (in Cyrillic) will work accesskey "1" (number 1). If I use accesskey="a" (in Cyrillic) will work accesskey "0". Example: http://www.most.ba/082/000c.aspx Sincerely Haris Tucakovic, Sweden Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Reporter, can you post a small html testcase? If you can, post it in English or very simple German -- you know English better than I know Swedish. Can you explain the problem again?

Explorer in Windows: Alt+ Accesskey. For Macintosh: Ctrl + Accesskey. This Mozilla’s page is without defined encoding, my code demand Unicode encoding (Utf-8).

Neo, will you look a this?

If you can not see text/code, see images: http://www.most.ba/l.png This is Latin page. I give command Alt + f, performs command Alt + Cyrillic c http://www.most.ba/c.png This is Cyrillic page. I give command Alt + Cyrillic b, performs command Alt + 1 (number 1) I give command Alt + Cyrillic a, performs command Alt + 0 (number 0) Code is simple and correct, see: http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#adef-accesskey
reporter, please click the 'create a new attachment link' http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?bugid=255696&action=enter instead of inlining random html into your bug comments.
System: Windows XP (Swedish). Installed support for Croatian (Latin) and Serbian (Cyrillic). Each page has 2 rows with links. Top links are with (underlined) letter (open navigation), foot links are numeral (hidden navigation). Index page have only top links. Links page is only in Latin. Latin pages: If use command Alt + f (in top links), performs command Alt + Cyrillic c (in top links) Cyrillic pages: If use command Alt + Cyrillic b (in top links), performs command Alt + 1 (number 1, in foot links) If give command Alt + Cyrillic a (in top links), performs command Alt + 0 (number 0, in foot links) In Internet Explorer everything is working correctly. Reporter
Aaron, i do not have a xp machine here:( reporter, could you reproduce the bug on linux? and if yes, pls. make a test case
I have tested even on Windows 98 (Second edition, Swedish), working in the same way as XP. I don’t have installed Linux. I shall install this (within some days) and make a test case. Can you make a test case with your configuration (Linux + Mozilla) how works this (see attachment id=156510)? Haris
I tested this on XP and asked guy at #mozillazine to press alt+f on link provided and got confirmation that this bug exists on Linux, too. Latin BIG Letter F is 0x0046 in Unicode (script uses accesskey="f") Cyrillic SMALL Letter Tse is 0x0446 in Unicode (same small letter Tse in accesskey). 1. It looks like Mozilla is currently using 2 bytes for acceskeys instead of 4. Other problems: 2. While you can press Alt+BIG letter and Alt+small letter in Latin with same result, you cannot do that in Cyrillic (tested on XP) 3. My friend didn't get ANY result when he pressed Alt+Cyrillic character on Linux, but that looks like another problem...
Nian, I installed Linux and tested Mozilla on Windows and Linux: ****************************** 1. Configurations (Mandrake Linux 10.0 + Mozilla 1.6) or (Windows XP Pro Swedish or Windows 98 Second Edition Swedish + Mozilla Firefox 0.9.3) give the same results: 1.a. Latin pages: - If using Alt + "Latin small letter F (position 0066)", performs command accesskey="Cyrillic small letter Tse (pos. 0446)". Latin capital letter F has pos. 0046. - If using Caps Lock, accesskey command – react. - If using Caps Lock and Shift, accesskey command – react. 1.b. Cyrillic pages: 1.b.1. Small letters: - If using Alt + "Cyrillic small letter A (pos. 0430)", performs command accesskey="Digit Zero (pos. 0030)". - If using Alt + "Cyrillic small letter Be (pos. 0431)", performs command accesskey="Digit One (pos. 0031)". 1.b.2. Capital letters: - If using Shift + Alt + accesskey, marks the first same letter (capital or small) in links, but accesskey command – NOT react. - If using Caps Lock, accesskey command – NOT react. - If using Caps Lock and Shift, accesskey command – react. ****************************** 2. Configuration (Mandrake Linux 10.0 + Mozilla 1.6): - Special Serbian and Macedonian Cyrillic characters displays incorrect: - Cyrillic capital letter Dje (pos. 0402): displays Cyrillic capital letter Te (pos. 0422); - Cyrillic capital letter Lje (pos. 0409): displays Cyrillic capital letter El (pos. 041B); - Cyrillic capital letter Nje (pos. 040A): displays Cyrillic capital letter En (pos. 041D); - Cyrillic capital letter Tshe (pos. 040B): displays Cyrillic capital letter Te (pos. 0422); - Cyrillic small letter Dje (pos. 0452): displays Cyrillic small letter Te (pos. 0442); - Cyrillic small letter Lje (pos. 0459): displays Cyrillic small letter El (pos. 043B); - Cyrillic small letter Nje (pos. 045A): displays Cyrillic small letter En (pos. 043D); - Cyrillic small letter Tshe (045B): displays Cyrillic small letter Te (0442); - Configuration (Mandrake Linux 10.0 + Konqueror 3.2.0): Special Serbian and Macedonian Cyrillic characters displays correct. - Konfiguracija (Windows XP Pro Swedish + Mozilla Firefox 0.9.3): Special Serbian and Macedonian Cyrillic characters displays correct. ****************************** Comments: A. Petar Bukvic (see Additional Comment #9) has excellent conclusion: “It looks like Mozilla is currently using 2 bytes for acceskeys instead of 4”. B. Latin pages working on Linux and Windows in the same way (see previous comment). C. Cyrillic pages have this bug and several other bugs.
Petar, i'm crazy busy on other issues now. would you like take this bug?
