Description

Tabbing through the inline version of uploader will break keyboard navigation.

Steps to reproduce:

1) open the uploader (inline) from the daily build page:
http://build.fluidproject.org/fluid/sample-code/uploader/inline/index.html

2) click the 'add-files' button

3) tap the 'tab' key and traverse through all of the uploader elements. Notice that after tabbing off the 'cancel' button, there is no longer any response to tapping the 'tab' key. shift-tab, will also no longer work.

    This issue may be addressed by FLUID-494, so that task should be carried out first, and then double-check if this bug is still present.

    Interesting: in IE6 the swf in all its 1px by 1px glory is part of the tab order. This may be related to this bug. Which I'm having trouble reproducing.

    I've forcibly removed the swf from the tab rotation by programattically adding tabindex=-1. Otherwise I could not reproduce this bug.

    Verified fix using IE6 (Win XP)

    The keyboard navigation stops after passing through all of the tabbable elements and returning to the address bar.

    This doesn't seem to happen if there are files in the file queue

    Appears to have been fixed

    Tested using:
    IE6 (Win XP, flash 10)
