146649 - Find and Replace doesn't allow an empty string as replacement.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 139420

(Core :: DOM: Editor, defect)

Description

[Roland Knecht]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.0rc3)

BuildID:    2002052306

To remove text from a mail or news message in composition it should be possible
to replace it with an empty string (empty "Replace with:" entry field). Mozilla
doesn't allow this by disabling the Replace buttons when the "Replace with:"
field is empty.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a new Mail Message
2. Position the cursor into the message body
3. Choose "Find an Replace" from the menu
4. Enter something into the "Find what:" field to enable the find button. 

Actual Results:  Replace buttons only become available when the "Replace with:"
field is not empty.

Expected Results:  Enable the replace buttons as soon as there is anything in
the "Find what:" entry field.

I did, on the trunk.  But nobody seems to have noticed the requests for branch
approval, so it's not fixed on the branch.
