This is not a real bug but I think it should be better that the
focus goes on the main page of an url instead going directly to
the first visible editable field of that page. One must click on the page
before being able to scroll it.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
go on an url with editable fields, this very one is a good sample :-)
Actual Results: focus put on the first editable field of the page
Expected Results: focus should be on the page itself

For me the focus gets to the page, not editable field.

I'm pretty sure this is a duplicate. I will try to find the original.

I've looked pretty hard for this and still haven't found the dup that asa
mentioned (though I have seen some similar bugs. Noting as RFE and confirming.

if this is confirmed then it belongs in event handling and not browser general.

See bug 55416 for a raft of other focus issues (I don't think this bug is a dup
of any of those either), and bug 31809 (where I specced focus behavior). This bug
should probably go to saari@netscape.com too.

cyril.elkaim@free.fr, what pages does this happen on? Some pages, such as
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ and http://www.google.com/, use JavaScript to put
focus in a search field to make their sites easier to use.

I don't believe that we have any features that automatically set focus to a
page's first edit field. For lack of a test url I'm going to assume that the
page the user visited used JS to set the focus and mark this INVALID.

VERIFIED. Seems like something that could easily be solved by some JS (per
comments). I think it could cause more problems than it would solve (i.e
scrolling and focus having to be on main page, etc.).

[RFE] is deprecated in favor of severity: enhancement. They have the same meaning.
