Open UI 8.2.2.4 SIA [23030]

When using Open UI with Firefox, if the user starts typing in a LOV field on a form Applet and then presses the TAB key, the focus goes to a different field compared to what happens in other Internet browsers.
 
The expected behavior is for the focus sequence to be the same with any Internet browser.
 

STEPS

On Chrome:
1. Navigate to Administration - User > Employees.
2. In Employee Detail Applet, click on "Mr/Ms:" field, type "D", then click the Tab keyboard key.

Result: Focus goes to the "First Name:" field.



On Firefox 26/28:

1. Navigate to Administration - User > Employees.
2. In Employee Detail Applet, click on "Mr/Ms:" field, type "D", then click the Tab keyboard key.

Result: Focus goes to the "Alias:" field instead of going to the expected "First Name:" field.
