If you're using SafariPlus, that might cause it.

Great, thanks! :)

Hrm, yes, all of a sudden it worked :S Weird. Probably my bad.

Nevertheless, tabbing should work. yes, this is because you're using custom buttons. But there are so many JS enhancements already, that adding emulated tabbing support shouldn't be a problem :)

This doesn't work in the bookmark popup that NetNewsWire triggers though ... so I'm wondering, how is it possible that it doesn't work there? Does Delicious somehow offer multiple of these interfaces?

Also, why is normal keyboard control not supported? ("normal" being tabbing to buttons in this case.)

Wim Leers started following the idea "Accessible Mollom" in Mollom.

Hah, thanks, works for me :)

(Still strange behaviour though.)

Wim Leers reported a problem in Delicious on January 09, 2009 23:53:

Keyboard navigation is broken

Using the delicious bookmarklet, the "tags" input field is given focus automatically – great!

Now, when I'm finished entering tags, I want to press "tab" followed by "return". However, there seems to be something special about the "Save" button! That is: it's impossible to give it focus... which means I'm forced to use the mouse every time.

I'm using Safari 3.

Wim Leers started following the question "is delicious ever going to allow people to save cached copies of websites they bookmarked?" in Delicious.

Wim Leers started following the idea "Delicious should support the XFN standard." in Delicious.

Wim Leers replied on October 26, 2008 02:15 to the idea "Let my browser remember my password for me!" in Delicious:

This is actually an extremely poor explanation for an even worse decision.

Setting the autocomplete property won't increase security at all.

Autocompletion improves security in login forms by avoiding the need for users to write down passwords, or reuse the same password from site to site. Login forms that prevent users from using autocomplete are far more likely to be compromised by out-of-band mechanisms such a shoulder surfing.

Many webmasters believe that autocompleting logins is a security risk. It may indeed be so on a shared computer, such as one in a public library. However only the end user can determine whether or not their computer is shared. Users are always free not to remember a username or password, or to tell the browser to forget stored information, if they use a shared computer.

And Safari's autocomplete functionality *did* work for del.icio.us, so something must have changed.
