When filling in web forms, I can Tab in and out of Text value boxes, use the delete key and cursor keys. But, when the cursor enters a Number value box I can ONLY use the number keys.

Can this be fixed?

As suspected, I am now 99% sure that the problem is with bad source code. I inspected and tweaked the source code on a web site and the problem went away! I have now reopened my support ticket with the developer and have provided them with the information to (hopefully) fix this issue and prove to them that, as I originally told them "I'm right, you're wrong."

Thanks for the help and attention, I'll take it from here!

TEST....... If no issues then Extensions which need to be added back in 1 at a time and tested ..... Or it is your Profile : Make a new one and test ...:

If is your Profile :

Note: Any customization will revert back to default, you will also need to reinstall Extensions.
