shift-tab doesn't work (Safari 4 beta, chrome 2)

[bill]

Not sure if there's anything we can do about this, but on test_Menu.html and test_Toolbar.html, shift-tab isn't going backwards through the tab stops. Tab correctly goes forwards through the tab stops.

It leads to failures in the Menu automated test.

I sent a bug report to apple although it didn't give a tracking number, so there's no way to know if they are working on it or if there's a workaround.

Does it happen on Chrome2, also? If so, probably best to file the bug at bugs.webkit.org, or check with Alex.

[bill]

Ah so it does... chrome 1 has a different set of problems which I filed under #8988 and #8989 but I guess that's irrelevant now that chrome 2 is beta.

Filed ​#24840 against webkit.

Also causing [some of] the failures on Spinner_a11y.html and Slider_a11y.html, the a11yTabFocus tests.

Still failing with Safari 4.0 (4530.17) on latest trunk.

This seems to be related to _keyNavContainer.js as the only places where I see this as a problem is with toolbar and menu which are the only two widgets that use this. Not sure if it is related to removing /adding the tabindex on the container or not.

HTML file that demonstrates the problem

[Becky Gibson]

This seems to be related to removing and resetting the tabindex programmatically. I have attached a non-dojo HTML file that demonstrates the problem.

[Becky Gibson]

(In [18626]) refs #8987 instead of removing tabindex in _onContainerFocus just change it to -1. This works better in safari than removing it.

[Becky Gibson]

[18626] partially fixes the problem. Now, on the first toolbar, if you arrow over to any button and press shift-tab, you go to the previous button IF there is no other focusable item before the toolbar. If you add an anchor tag before the first toolbar on the page, pressing shift-tab with focus on an inner button of the toolbar will take you to the anchor tag (as it should). Thus, I believe this is still a Safari 4 problem. I don't know if we will be able to work around this new behavior or not. Note that you have to have the advanced preference "press tab to highlight each item on a web page" set in order to be able to tab to anchor elements.

(In [18800]) Enable robot tests on Chrome now that it's working. Thanks Mark! (refs #9526).

Also disabling keyboard tests on safari 4 / chrome 2 until the keyboard bugs are fixed (refs #8987, #9506).

[Adam Peller]

Safari never had keyboard support. Consider for 1.4

[bill]

(In [19099]) Add test for tabbing and shift-tabbing around the Editor widget. Working on FF and IE, although not safari (but that seems to be a problem with DOH rather than w/the editor?)

Refs #9558, #9612, #8987.

[bill]

Cool, this is working on the latest safari (4.0.3) and chrome (version 3) now, just due to bug fixes in the browser code.

[bill]

(In [20113]) Keyboard is more-or-less working for safari and chrome. Enabling the keyboard tests for all browsers. Refs #9506, #8987.
