You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty) and 9.10 (Karmic)

My javascript application (http://www.stopwatch.com.br/) triggers a function when the spacebar is RELEASED (onKeyUp).
It does work as expected in Intrepid Ibex (8.10) and Windows Vista, both running the latest Firefox 3.5 release.

------

What I expected to happen:
It should trigger the onKeyUp event only when I RELEASE the spacebar.

What happened instead:
Under Jaunty and Karmic, that onKeyUp event is triggered repeteadly while i'm HOLDING the spacebar...
