At the MLS Listings website , after entering any number in the User ID field and clicking "Sign In", the cursor cannot be placed in the password box of the next window.

With Safari or IE, the cursor is already in the password box when the window is opened.

The tab had no effect, but when I was testing the tab I noticed a small box with a stylized F in it in the lower left corner of the password window. Placing the arrow over it revealed a "play" triangle and clicking caused the cursor to appear in the password box.

My problem was due to Flashblock being installed. Uninstalling it allowed the sign-in to work as would be expected.

Thanks

Can you get there with the Tab key?
