(Whiteboard: resolved - bzbarsky@mit.edu suggested disabling XBL forms control in Preferences->Debug and that did it. Thanks.)

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20021016 Build Identifier: ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/latest - version 1.4 I installed the latest build as of 4/3/03 and text entry boxes on my computer (Windows 2000, IBM 600x laptop) were not selectable. This behaviour was exhibitied at numerous sites such as www.google.com and www.hotmail.com. The search box in google was missing form the display. I had to revert to version 1.2b (I did not try 1.3) inorder to login to hotmail. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.go to www.google.com 2.there is no box for text searching available - the page is just blank in that area. 3. Actual Results: I can't do anything because I can't enter text. TABbing to get to another field does not work. Expected Results: displayed the normal text box for search entries at google. I don't know how to send debug information but am willing to do so if you want. I do have to install 1.4 over 1.2 and then go back to v1.2 in order to submit any information however (1.4 won't let me type data in)

In 1.4, go to Preferences > Debug. If "XBL Form Controls" are enabled, disable them and mark this bug invalid, please. Otherwise, please let me know and I'll start looking for what might be going on.
