Bug 7788

Summary: Task List can not be edited when only keyboard is used

Description Duong Nguyen CLA 2002-01-16 12:45:43 EST 
To reproduce:
1 Open WSWB
2 Create two new Tasks in the Task List
3 Place the focus on the first task
4 Try to use the keyboard to modify either tasks. 
5 No keyboard command will allow you to initiate edit mode.

Result: Task Description can not be edited 

Expected Behaviour: Edit mode to edit a task description can be invoked using 
some keyboard commands.  In Outlook while editing tasks, tab moves you through 
the fields (and thus you can edit the description) while ctrl+tab moves between 
panes (in WSWB tab and ctrl+tab both do the same thing).  Others have and 
explicit key sequence to open edit.  Either solution would be acceptable

Still a problem in 2.0.
This is a general problem with tables which needs to be addressed for 
accessibility requirements.
