I believe this regression with the spacebar is covered by some other bug. What I see happen when I press spacebar is that the page scrolls. There are a couple of bugs about that (happens with different controls): bug 26882 (textarea), bug, 53896 (HTML button).

The given testcase is 403 Forbidden. Do we need a testcase for this? I am marking this donttest; if a testcase is required then please mark this qawanted, describe what you want, and then assign me to QA Contact. Thanks.

Using Netscape 6 on NT & Linux I see the Enter key works fine for radio buttons (you can use this bug report as a testcase). Also using the Bugzilla Query page as a testcase I see this works for the checkbox as well. I am marking this as worksforme. Space still does not work (but that is another bug).

heikki: What is the bug # for the bug with the space bar? Verifying works for me on this bug.

I don't have the spacebar bug number at hand - I think it might be on saari's plate (or maybe he fixed it already...)
