User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030721 Mozilla Firebird/0.6 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030721 Mozilla Firebird/0.6 Version: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030721 Mozilla Firebird/0.6 That version works correctly. When I click the textarea, the cursor is positioned at the very beginning of it. However, the 7/24 nightly displays incorrect behavior. When I click the textarea, the cursor is about 1 line above the textarea, instead of inside it. I will provide the version string for the 7/24 build shortly. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to URL provided 2. Click the textarea 3. Observe cursor position Actual Results: Cursor is one line above textarea until I begin to type. Expected Results: Put the cursor somewhere within the textarea.
Correction, 7/23 shows the incorrect behavior: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5b) Gecko/20030723 Mozilla Firebird/0.6 8/02 also shows the incorrect behavior.
I see this to on LInux 2003080405 I think this is a dupe.
Verified in linux, trunk from august 3. Interesting inconsistencies... Compare: data:text/html,%3Cbr%3E%3Ctextarea%20rows%3D%225%22%20cols%3D%2225%22%3E%3C%2Ftextarea%3E with: data:text/html,%20%3Cbr%3E%3Ctextarea%20rows%3D%225%22%20cols%3D%2225%22%3E%3C%2Ftextarea%3E The first one exhibits this behavior, while the second one does not. The two URIs are identical except that the second one contains whitespace before the br. Updating the URL to this simplified testcase (taken from a minimized testcase Chris put up at his website), confirming, and updating OS to all. A mac person can update the platform if they witness it. Adding regression keyword.

Very possibly a dupe of bug 214607, but I haven't looked closely enough to dupe it with confidence.
Marking as dupe of bug #214607, because the testcase in the second comment in that bug shows the same behavior. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 214607 ***
