Note that this happens if ANY capital letters are entered. Upon pressing enter to go to the URL, it is loaded correctly, so this is an aesthetic issue more than anything. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Type any of the following into the address bar: Cnn, cNn, cnN, CNN 2. Press the down arrow key to match http://www.cnn.com/ Actual Results: Text actually appearing in the address bar is now CNNtp://www.cnn.com/ (or cNntp://www.cnn.com/ , etc.) Really disconcerting, but then we shouldn't be surfing with caps lock on. Expected Results: Convert the typed text to lowercase and behave as usual, or perhaps chastize the user for surfing with caps lock on.

Confirming with 20030629 build on W2K. OS -> ALL (this is not XP specific) Severity -> Minor (this is only an aesthetic issue, not a real bug)
Severity: normal → minor
OS: Windows XP → All
this may be a dup of bug 194574 As I mentioned in that bug, this can be more than just a cosmetic issue. If you do NOT press enter to select the entry, but rather use the arrow keys or mouse to navigate within the text field, the bad text stays in the field.
