Why Won't Tabindex Work with Firefox?

Viewed 19059

I'm trying to use the tabindex text input attribute to allow users to tab between fields on this page: https://seatgeek.com/login/. This works perfectly in all browsers (even in IE!) except for Firefox. I'm using Firefox 3.6.10.

Hi this may not be a perfect answer but, it's a workaround

The latest mozilla firefox (81.0.1) You can actually navigate to it using tab, but if any text is there it won't read it. so what you can do is label/span the text and use aria-labbeledby with the id, it will read similar to the examplae below.

<div tabindex="0" aria-labelledby="xyz123">
 <label id="xyz123">
