User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3 Accented letters such as à ó do not work in gmail when writting messages. This only happens in the body form (subject: form and to: form do work). Also, one click with the mouse in the body form solves the problem and accents work again. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open gmail and click on "compose mail" 2. Move to the body form by clicking "tab" key twice (important, if clicked using the mouse accents *do* work). 3. Try to write accented letters such as à, é, etc. Actual Results: Accented letters do not work, again, clicking the for with the mouse solves the problem Expected Results: Accented letters should work using only the keyboard to set the focus in the body form Using firefox 3.6.3 under mac os 10.6.3
The bug *only* happens if "rich formatting" is set. In plain text accents always work. Also, I tested it with google chrome and safari and both work as expected.
