This problem occurs only in a Flash animation when this animation is specified with the wmode="transparent" parameter. When so, it is impossible to type a numeric character in a text field inside a form in the Flash when using a french keyboard configuration. I mean, by example, if you type &, é or " when holding the SHIFT key, it's supposed to type 1, 2 or 3 on screen. But when using Firefox with Flash, it types &, é or " anyway.
This bug is particularly disturbing, even blocking, when using a laptop, when you haven't got any numeric pad.
