KLM online check-in #fail: each combobox enter refreshes page
Posted by jpluimers on 2010/09/01
Most pages don’t do a page submit when you press the Enter key in a combobox.
KLM does in their online check-in.
Which means that a keyboard groupie like me basically is forced to use the mouse to select country a zillion times (Netherlands for all of the group members for Nationality, Passport, etc).
Other sites do it right and accept this:
- Press down-key to open combobox
- Press N key a couple of time to select Netherlands
- Press Enter key to accept Netherlands
- Press Tab key to go to next field
KLM online check-in does a page submit on each time you get to step 3, refreshes the page, and moves the focus to some non-input fied.
Big #fail.
