When I'm entering data in a website such as my address, I use the Tab button to jump between windows. How do I make it stop at drop-down menus (right now the tab button jumps past them)?

Right now when I use the tab button to jump between windows on a website where you enter data, such as an address. It always jumps past a drop-down menu such as the "state", so I have to use the mouse to click on the drop-down menu. Is there a preference setting in FF that will cause the tab button to stop at everything instead of skipping drop-down menus?

See: Pressing Tab key does not select menus or buttons See http://kb.mozillazine.org/accessibility.tabfocus

Note: In OS X (as of 2005-01), if this preference is not explicitly set, the “Full Keyboard Access” setting in System Preferences will be honored. All builds before that date (e.g., Firefox 1.0.x) will ignore that setting.
This pref doesn't exist by default, so if you want to use it instead of the system settings then you need to create a new Integer pref with the name accessibility.tabfocus and set the value to what you want (7 is to tab through all the fields).

thanks! Guaranteed to be too complex for basic/casual FF users, but I followed your instructions and the website's that you linked to. It's a shame this isn't a simple option in the preferences dialog box.
