148374 - [Mac] URL bar - incorrect responses to Home,End

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 130380

(Core :: DOM: UI Events & Focus Handling, defect)

Description

[Michal 'hramrach' Suchanek]

Mozilla 2002-05-30-05 Mac OS X 10.1.4
in location bar:
ctrl-enter does nothing
cmd-enter and opt-enter does enter
What opens in new tab then?

Home and End does nothing
I discovered by chance that Cmd-Left and Cmd-Right have the function on Mac.

Opt-left is the same as Cmd-left
Opt-Right goes to end of word. Pressing more than once has no effect - always
goes to the end of the current word, never skips to next.

whatever-k either writes something unintelligible or does nothing
How does one kill the end of the URL (IIRC C-k worked on Linux)
I finally found out I have Cmd-A which selects everything at least.

Ctrl-k is an emacs shortcut; there is no reason to implement it on Mac.

The ctrl-enter issue is already filed in an older bug.

OK, found  the keyboard layout thingie.
what's left:
- Opt-Left,Opt-Right should move by word (editing shortcut) (is broken)
- Home and End should jump to beginning, resp. end of text (does nothing)

bug 48328 is about page view. They explicitly state they do not want it to morph
into something else. This is URL bar, which is slightly different IMO.

Note that on Mac Home&End are supposed to do some vertical scrolling as well
(which happens but deos not move cursor).
According to the layout page the scrolling should happen (only?) if the edit is
multiline. Either the behavior or the description is broken.
