URLs (if applicable) : http://files.swivelgames.com/source/chromiumbug_recreation/chromium_issue.html Browsers tested: Safari 5: FAIL Chrome 11: FAIL Firefox 4: OK IE 8: OK What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Open URL above in browser 2. Click editable DIV ("Here's some content...") 3. Type 4. Repeat step 3 until the bolded text changes. What is the expected result? > The counter should increase every time a key > is pressed while the DIV is in focus. What happens instead? > The first keypress is ignored. Every time after > the first key is pressed, the span is updated. I just found a band-aid workaround for this issue. By using focus() after making contentEditable `true`, Chromium notices the first event. http://files.swivelgames.com/source/chromiumbug_recreation/chromium_issue_bandaid.html
