98145 - focus problem in find panel

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 96843

(Core :: XUL, defect)

Description

[Elmar Ludwig]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.3+) Gecko/20010904
BuildID:    2001090400

When opening the Find panel with text already present in the entry field
(the previous search string), the entry field does not have focus (cannot
type) and TAB cannot be used to change focus in the Find dialog.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Mozilla, go to any page.
2. Select Search/Find in Page (CTRL-F).
   Note that the entry field has focus (blinking cursor).
3. Enter any string, press Return, dismiss Find panel.
4. Select Search/Find in Page (CTRL-F).
   Note that the previous search string is highlighted.
5. Try to enter a new search string.

Actual Results:
Typing text does not change the entry field, pressing TAB does not
change the focus widget. When I click with the mouse into the entry
field, the behaviour returns to normal, until the dialog is reopened.

Expected Results:
Typing text should replace the old search string, pressing TAB should
move the focus around the dialog.
