what the heck guys?

i just updated to the new firefox and now my tab key doesn't go to the next link, or box or whatever.. i may not know exactly how to phrase it. i searched "tab" with no results at all and i scanned the first page on here so i doubted there was another topic.. unless someone's writing it right now.. oh well.

yeah, so.. anyone else have this problem? it's really annoying because now i have to click with my mouse everywhere instead of just tabbing. for instance, i'll have to scroll down this page and CLICK the "submit" button vs. just tabbing like twice and hitting the return key.

oh wait, that worked... but yeah, it's not working for everything.. i don't get it now??

try fiddling with your "accessibility:tabfocus" (enter about:config in the url).

1 = url, search, text fields, submit buttons
3 = url, search, text fields, buttons, drop-downs
5 = url, search, text fields, buttons, drop-downs, links
7 = everything (default)

next time, try not to whine so much, people might be more apt to help you.
