KEY_RELEASED event isn't sent to Java Applet on Firefox 13-17 and Java 7 on Mac

more options

Hi guys.

I made a bunch of tests and find that KEY_RELEASED event isn't sent to Java applet for Java 7 and Firefox 13-17 on Mac.

On any button press KEY_PRESSED and KEY_TYPED events are sent, but KEY_RELEASED is not, or sent eventually, not always for pressed button.

I checked this use case for Safari + Java 7 and for embedded applet runner of IntejjiJ Idea IDE. Works right, KEY_RELEASED proceed.

Can you take a look?

Have found I reproduced it on Firefox 13-16. I've downloaded 17.0.1 and reproduce it too.

Also I checked it on Ubuntu 12.10 + Firefox 17.0.1 + Java 7 u10 - KEY_RELEASED is sent to applet.
