1006047 - Search function in FF 29 - missing buttons for next / previous result

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 344422

(Toolkit :: Find Toolbar, defect)

Description

[Stefan Matthäus]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; rv:29.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/29.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20140421221237

Steps to reproduce:

go to a website with a lot of text. type a search string, some word which is several times on the site.


Actual results:

FF 29 jumps to the first position where the word has been found.


Expected results:

FF 29 should offer buttons to jump to the next and previous positions where the word has been found. It does not. FF 28 did so.

I am mostly happy with FF 29, but this is annoying.

I see little buttons with arrows pointing up/down on my copy of Firefox, when searching in a page. Are those not there for you?

Comment 2

[Jim Jeffery not reading bug-mail 1/2/11]

up/down and previous/next were removed in the 'quick find' toolbar invoked with a forward slash "/"

F3 key will 'find next' even though the find bar closes as long as you stay on the same tab, cross tab searching is also been changed/removed.
