If we would expose IAccessibleText correctly then would it fix a problem? Mounir, I assume you use @value attribute on that xul:label.

I'd be great if we end up here having an optimal solution for user experience. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/209509 Title: <input type=file> does not accept textual input Status in XUL + XPCOM application runner: In Progress Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in “firefox-3.0” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in “firefox-3.5” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Binary package hint: firefox Firefox 3 (3.0~b4+nobinonly-0ubuntu1) immediately opens a "file upload" dialog when I click on the file name field.
