User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030430
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030430

Older versions allowed one to select an entry from the drop-down history. Upon
selecting this entry, the URL would then be loaded. Now, one must press "Return"
before this entry is activated. This seems to be an unecessary step.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install 1.4a and select an entry from history
2. Wait until realizing page won't be loaded
3. Place cursor in URL window and press return, page is loaded

Actual Results:  
URL was only loaded after placing cursor in URL window and pressing return.

Expected Results:  
Page is loaded as soon as entry is selected from drop-down history list.

this worksforme with linux trunk 20050403 and also 1.4a

Rob: is this still a problem with a recent build (1.7 or 1.8b)?

Nope, just tested 1.7.x and it works as expected. Thanks for the follow up!
