Alt-down arrow is supposed to open a combo box. I wonder if you opened it that way if the behavior would be different. Probably not, but it's worth a try??? (LOL)

Hi. While browsing with Chrome, I'm having difficulty exiting combo boxes while preserving my choices. With IE, and I think also Firefox, I usually (1) press enter, then (2) alt-down arrow, then (3) arrow down to my choice, (4) keep focus there and (5) press alt-up arrow. Step 5 preserves my choice and takes me out of the box.

With Chrome, step 5 doesn't work. Instead, I need to press enter on my choice. However, I'm still in the combo box. Alt-up arrow doesn't take me out, or if it does, I lose my choice. In one case, the wrong choice is shown.

Just now, pressing enter on my choice and then tabbing to the next field took me out of the combo box into the next field. Is this the only way of exiting a combo box in Chrome while preserving your choice? What if there isn't another field? (I haven't been able to test this possibility yet.)
