Description
FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.5.0_01"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_01-b05)

Solaris 10 x86

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
I run a java program (JFrame) and in it contains 1 JTextField

I tried to delete contents in the textfield using the "Back space" or "Del" key but i couldnt

The only way i can clear contents out of it is by higlighting it and key it something other than back space and del.

I tried working on Solaris 9 SPARC (1.4.2) and have no such problems

EVALUATION Only reproducible on some platforms. Sounds like an underlying AWT issue. ###@###.### 2005-2-25 18:01:57 GMT
