Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 90337

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[tvandyke]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130

When I first installed Mozilla about 5 months ago, everything was working fine.
 I have stopped using mozilla (about 1 month ago) because it is very difficult
to get to a web page if (problem/bug being stated here) the RETURN key (& ENTER
key) is not functionable anymore.

I have tried re-downloading, installing the most current version, deleting the
preferences, entering a new profile; but still nothing works.

the only way I can get to a web page, is to type in the address, hit the Search
button and then click on the link the search program gives me.
(very time comsuming)

Can't / Won't use Mozilla until bug is solved    :(

The RETURN key works with all other programs/applications on my computer (MS
Word, Netscape, MS Internet explorer, Opera 6.0) so it can not be the computer
or the keyboard cable.

Why did it work for a few months then suddenly stop working?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start program
2. type wed page in address field
3. Hit return/enter to get to the web page,....  Nothing happens

Actual Results:  
Nothing happens, that is the problem.

Expected Results:  
fix bug or install a 'Enter' button to click on
