couldn't find a bug on this, but reassign or dup as needed. we get aqua-styled focus rings around all html form controls, except for single-line input fields and multi-line textareas. only the cursor displays when focus is in such textfields. this occurs in both camino and nscp (mozilla) trunk builds. for comparison, safari does display the aqua focus ring around textfields (along with the cursor) when in focus.

Camino (so probably also Mozilla, but haven't checked a current build) also does not show a focus ring around <select multiple="multiple">. Neither does Safari, but Safari doesn't draw focus rings in other instances when Camino does. (Safari indicates focus with the intensity of the highlighting, which is nice unless nothing is selected.) Camino's current behavior is to draw a Gecko focus caret around an <option> in such a <select> when it has focus, but this is not a very Mac-like solution. The entire <select> should get an Aqua focus ring. Bonus points for also darkening the selection. Mark

does this bug reffers xul or html form controls.

> does this bug reffers xul or html form controls. using 2005010710-trunk firefox, this affects both xul and html forms. using camino 0.82, this only affects html form fields; input fields in ui elements do display the blue aqua focus ring. I'll need to retest this once today's camino trunk build is available.

note to self: bug 279264 aims to fix this for the pinstripe theme on mac-firefox.

I think this is really an accessibility issue. Something needs to be done about the focus situation on all mac widgets in XUL/HTML. :-(
