Description Joanmarie Diggs (IRC: joanie) 2013-06-06 12:45:33 UTC 
Links are not currently Tab focusable (see bug 701722). Once that bug is fixed, pressing Return on the focused link should activate the link.
Comment 1 Joanmarie Diggs (IRC: joanie) 2014-06-10 17:39:45 UTC 
This bug is FIXED, presumably as a consequence of the work done in bug 706244. Mind you, at the moment it's hard to verify this because bug 701722 is not fixed. BUT if you use an alternative way to grab focus on a link [*], pressing Return will then activate the link. Therefore, I'm marking this bug as a dup of 706244 and removing the depends on bug 701722.

[*] For instance, applying the patches on bug 728475 and then using AT-SPI to grab focus on the link via the accessible component interface.
