Description

[William Woods]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020529

Mozillas 0.9x-1.00 don't run a Java applet on a couple of sites correctly. 

   http://webpac.santaclaracountylib.org/ 
   http://libweb.city.palo-alto.ca.us/ 

Going to the catalog and typing, e.g., "smith" into the search box shows up as
"ssmmiitthh". Copying and pasting "smith" gets "smithsmith". Netscape 4.08 works
fine for this. 

Reproducible: Sometimes [almost always]
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to one of the URLs listed.
2.Go to the catalog.
3.Enter a name or title in the box.

Actual Results:  See above.

Expected Results:  It should have displayed the text typed in, so a search for
the correct name could be done.

I presume you're using JRE 1.1.8? Possibly a problem between mozilla and JRE
1.1.8 with certain applets on Mac 8/9 systems?
