Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 628008

(Firefox :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[Nilanjan Mhatre]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:34.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/34.0
Build ID: 20141126041045

Steps to reproduce:

1. enter a url, e.g. ' www.google.co.in '
2. Copy 'm' or '.uk' on clipboard(i want to replace 'co.in' with 'com' or 'co.uk'
3. When I select '.in' >(right-click)> then paste, it works



Actual results:

4. but when I directly click 'Paste & Go', it replaces, the whole url 'www.google.co.in', with the clipboard contents, i.e. 'm' or '.uk'; and it visits 'http://m'


Expected results:

4. when I directly click 'Paste & Go', it should replace only the selected part of the url, with the clipboard contents, and should visit the page of the whole url.
