           Summary: when choosing an auto-completed value in a text input
                    field the javascript 'change' event is not fired.
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh
               URL: http://www.joomlapolis.com/component/option,com_comprofi
                    ler/task,lostPassword/
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: JavaScriptCore
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: brunner at lightning.ch

Steps to reproduce:

1) open any url with a form on any page (which doesn't have autocomplete="off"
attribute)
2) fill in the form and submit it
3) open same url again
4) type-in same first letter then view autocompletion possibility, and with
arrow key down+tab complete the field (or clicking the autocomplete proposal
and then pressing TAB key has same effect)

the 'onchange'/'change' event isn't fired.

You can try that on the url in 'URL', which fires a jQuery change event to do
an ajax email-check. If you type in with keyboard a new value, it fires change,
but not with auto-complete.

Same thing when you have only one autocomplete value, even with typing with
keyboard there is no change even fired if you accept the value by hitting tab.

This report, although with the same page as url, is different from the private
security report 20778.
