Created attachment 452225 [details] test case reduction Right now, focus doesn't seem to change on click interactions. This makes it difficult to use the keyboard to complement mouse interactions. For example: 1) click on an input radio using the mouse 2) attempt to change the selected radio by using the up/down arrows Expected: I'm able to modify my selection. Actual: up/down arrows scroll the page Or similarly, with checkboxes: 1) check an input checkbox using the mouse 2) attempt to uncheck it by pressing the spacebar Expected: I'm able to modify my selection. Actual: nothing happens (page scrolls) **Note on <label>:** I would also expect that clicking an input's related <label> would move focus to it, but that's not the case. To sum up: it appears that the only way to interact with a radio/checkbox via keyboard, is to first focus it via the keyboard itself. Mouse interactions won't focus those elements. Webkit's behavior is inconsistent with current implementations of other browsers (tested on Firefox 97.0 and Chrome 98.0.4758.102). I've reproduced it with and without the "Press Tab to highlight each item on a webpage" setting enabled, on the following builds: - 15.3 (17612.4.9.1.5) - TP Release 140 (Safari 15.4, WebKit 17614.1.1.5) - Nightly 289904 The reduced test case (attached) is so simple that I have the feeling I'm missing something here. If so, sorry for wasting your time.
Safari matches platform behavior. It is inappropriate for controls to behave inconsistently just because they happen to be on a web page. If you would like macOS behavior to change, please submit your feedback to Apple. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 22261 ***
