GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 140521
Input box focus sometimes lost when another tab finishes loading
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
If I'm writing in an input box while another tab is loading sometimes the focus will change to the other tab and my keypresses will be used in the other tab's typeahead. To reproduce this this is enough: 1. Start loading some site 2. Open a new tab 3. Load something with an input box (my IMP webmail is usually good) 4. Start filling in the input box Suddently the focus is gone and the only way to recover it is to switch to another tab and then come back.
I've reproduced this in 1.2.2 too.
