We can't ship Firefox breaking hardly the accessibility of HTML controls. So the fix must be at least on Beta. Having broken HTML file input on nightly and aurora is a bad thing too since we likely loose testers using nighties as daily browser (I think Marco is one of them). But probably that's acceptable if it doesn't take too long. If uplifting is Thuesday then we likely get inaccessible nightly and aurora both for uncertain period because we still don't have working a11y solution. I would land this patch after uplifting. In the meantime I'll try to get a11y patch on top of Mounir's patch. -- 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.
