132537 - Search entry misbehaves when editing search term not at end of line

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: Location Bar, defect)

Description

[Joachim Sauer]

When editing search text in the URL bar at some position that is not at the end
of line the <Search WHATEVER for "something"> entry is not updated acordingly.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Click in URL bar to select all text
2. Enter "one three"
3. Position the cursor between "one" and "three"
4. Enter "two"
5. Press down arrow to bring up drop-down list (only if configured accordingly)
6. Select the Search entry.

Actual Result:
The text in the URL bar reverts back to "one three" (the text after the last
change that happend at the end of line).

Expected result:
The URL bar should still contain "one two three" and the seach entry as well.

Workaround:
After Editing something in the URL bar do <END> <space> <Backspace> before
selecting the <Search ...> entry.

this seems to work ok now (win2k build 2002060808).

reporter (Joachim): can you try this again with a recent version of mozilla
(e.g. 1.0) and see if you can reproduce it.  if not, please resolve this bug as
WORKSFORME. thanks.
