Hello, With Firefox and jQuery-1.3.2 so widely spread nowadays, I would like to report a rather serious accessibility problem for all people that are dependent on keyboard navigation.
With all versions after jquery-1.2.1 (js being enabled), link focus is lost in Firefox when you follow a link to another page and hit the backspace key. You can try it for yourself, e.g. on http://jquery.com/ with the "Plugins" link in the top menu -- once with js enabled (link focus is lost when you come back after having followed the link, and once with js disabled (link focus is still there after hitting the backspace key.) There was no problem in that respect before version 1.2.2 and it doesn't happen with jQuery (any version) disabled. Although this isn't happening in IE8 (native, on Vista32 Home Premium SP2), IE7 (IE-Tester), and Opera 9.5.1, it doesn't seem to be solely Firefox (i.e., browser) related, since it's working perfectly even in the latest Firefox version (3.5.5) with the older jQuery-1.2.2 version. Being no javascript specialist myself, I really hope someone among you developers will have a look into this. Thank you so much for your valuable time and contributions! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "jQuery Development" group.
