Bug 11189 – REGRESSION (NativeListBox): When a list box has focus, pressing command- A (select all) doesn't selected all items in list

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: Forms

[Chris Petersen]

* SUMMARY
REGRESSION (NativeListBox): When a list box has focus, pressing command- A (select all) doesn't selected all items in list. Instead, the selection is placed out of list box onto the page.

* STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. With r16831, open "select_multiple_2.html"
2. Click in either list box so at least at one item is selected
3. Press command -A
4. Instead of all the list items becoming highlighted, a selection is created on the page

* RESULTS
When a select list box has focus, pressing command-A should select all items in the list (providing the select uses multiple attribute)

* REGRESSION
Yes, this works in stock Safari under 10.4.7.

I'd rather not add more stuff to Node, but I couldn't think of a better place to put those methods.  Suggestions are welcome.  Thanks!

Hmm... Command-A still selects everything on the page for me, using Safari 2.0.4 with locally-built WebKit r18269.
