The form fields in webkit appear much more accessible that current safari 2.0. However I'm noticing that buttons are still not accessible. I see there was bug 7138 that asked for all elements, but I'm thinking to get a few more of the form controls would be a huge win if not all. Getting these three buttons to be accessible would be great. <input type="button"/> <input type="submit"/> <button>Text</button>

Adding 7138 as a dependency

Todd, I am able to tab to buttons as long as I enable the "Press Tab to highlight each item on a webpage" preference in the Advanced section of Safari's preferences and use a WebKit nightly build. http://nightly.webkit.org/

I'm using a nightly, I didn't realize that was an option I had to enable.
