User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:45.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/45.0 Build ID: 20160601155443 Steps to reproduce: Define a keyword search by rightclicking a searchbox example: "g" for google.com/search?q=%s Try modifiying the address Example edit either the keyword "g" to "go" or "google.com/search?q=%s" to "google.co.jp/search?q=%s" or delete the originating bookmark. Result? Nothing changed. Example: Firefox still uses "g" to search even if the bookmark doesn't exist anymore, "go" won't work and the address for the search it will use will be google.com/search?q=%s not google.co.jp/search?q=%s Actual results: If you define a keyword for a search and then try to modify the address or keyword the original address/keyword will be used when you do the keyword search and if you delete the related bookmark the keyword will still exist. Expected results: Changes to be reflected on behavior of the browser.
I can reproduce the issue partially, with the following steps: 1. run Firefox ESR45 (or Nightly) 2. open https://www.google.com/ (at this point it's redirected to https://www.google.co.jp for me instead, so I use Yahoo for the another URL to make it clearer) 3. right click the input form, and click "Add keyword for this Search..." 4. insert "g" in "Keyword:" 5. click "Save" 6. open Bookmark Sidebar 7. right click "Search Google" (added by step 5), and click "Properties" menu item 8. change "Location:" to "https://search.yahoo.com/yhs/search?p=%s" 9. click "Save" 10. enter "g hello" in location bar and hit enter 11. right click "Search Google", and click "Properties" menu item 12. change "Keyword:" to "go" 13. click "Save" 14. enter "g hello" in location bar and hit enter 15. enter "go hello" in location bar and hit enter 16. right click "Search Google" (added by step 5), and click "Delete" menu item 17. enter "g hello" in location bar and hit enter 18. enter "go hello" in location bar and hit enter actual behavior: step 10: open search result for "hello" with google step 11: "Keyword:" is empty step 14: open search result for "hello" with google step 15: open search result for "hello" with yahoo step 17: open search result for "hello" with google step 18: open search result for "go hello" with default search engine expected behavior: step 10: open search result for "hello" with yahoo step 11: "Keyword:" is "g" step 11: open search result for "g hello" with default search engine step 12: open search result for "hello" with yahoo step 14: open search result for "g hello" with default search engine step 15: open search result for "go hello" with default search engine
