SWT java browser backspace key stops working

Question

I open a web page in my java program's swt browser.

Sometimes the backspace key stops working.

has anyone heard of this or know what may fix it?

When i click a button on my swt form the backspace key inside of the browser starts working again.

Answer 1

I have a feeling this may be an SWT issue related to this bug I filed last week. If this occurs on Windows, and does not happen inside an IE8 instance with the same webpage, consider adding a comment that report describing your problem.

Answer 2
