tested using 2002.03.12 comm verif bits on linux rh7.2, mac 10.1.3 and win2k. recently noticed that when i first click into a textarea (like in this bug report), the caret doesn't initially appear. focus is there, because if i start typing, text does appear (and then caret as well). doesn't seem to affect single-line textfields, though. steps: 1. go to a page like this bug report. 2. with your mouse, click in the textarea ("Additional Comments"). observe: the caret is invisible. side note to aaronl: this doesn't matter whether caret browsing is on or off, just so's ya know. :)
this regressed sometime btwn the 2002.03.09.07 (works fine) and 2002.03.11.08 (broken) builds --looking at comm verif bits on linux. the workaround for this is easy (either start typing or click again), but i'm nominating it for nsbeta1 since it might confuse other users.

Verified. This works with my new CVS build.

Look at bug 135154. Is a dupe of this one (try the testcase)? If yes then this one should be reopened.
