Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. open http://www.sf.airnet.ne.jp/~ts/japanese/katakana_stroke.html 2. click eg on "Stroke 1" 3. try using the keyboard (eg cmd-W to close the window, cmd-T to open a new tab, or text input in another tab in the same window) Actual Results: firefox window stops responding to any keyboard event Expected Results: keep on responding to keyboard events :-) i'm using the default theme of firefox. platform: MacOS 10.2.8 java: 1.4.1_01

dup bug163468 ?

> dup bug163468 ? may be related. the symptoms are a bit different though. it's funny: when i load the page www.lohn1.de/lobn.htm as described in bug #163468, first it all works fine -- i can enter text, use the menus and everything. however, after i've clicked on button "berechnen" ("calculate") and the page has reloaded, a behaviour similar to the one i had noticed with the other page happens: other tabs in the window stop receiving keyboard events. however, what i couldn't see on my page because there are no text fields, is that the java applet seems to be getting all the events for itself. when typing some text in another tab while www.lohn1.de/lobn.htm is open, i see the text field of the java applet appear on the other page, and the text is entered within it. you have to close the tab to regain the keyboard focus.

I have the same problem: Firefox 0.9.3 & 1.0.4, OSX.3.8 500Mhz titanium, 256mb ram, 8mb ati rage mobility. Mozilla build 2005052209 does not have this problem.
