1214091 - Find on page doesn't search in input fields of number type

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 647473

(Toolkit :: Find Toolbar, defect)

Description

[Peter Brodersen]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64; rv:41.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/41.0
Build ID: 20150929144111

Steps to reproduce:

Visit a page with an input field of type number, e.g.:

Text: <input type="text" value="123">
Number: <input type="number" value="456">

Find on page (Ctrl+F), search for content in the number input field (456 in this case).


Actual results:

Nothing is found. "Phrase not found" notice in "Find on page" search bar.


Expected results:

Text in the input field should show up as a match.

"Find on page" does search in input fields of type="text". No reason not to do the same thing in type="number".

This looks like a dupe of bug 647473 to me.
