218721 - Would be nice to be able to search by hitting enter from the address bar.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 197918

(SeaMonkey :: Search, enhancement)

Description

[Ambrose]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624

If one types a search in the address bar and hits enter without selecting search
foo for "bar" a message "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded" is
displayed. It would be nice to have the option for mozilla to do a search
instead of showing this dilog.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Type "what is foo" in the address bar.
2. Hit enter.

Actual Results:  
A dialog saying "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded" appeared.

Expected Results:  
It should have done a search on my prefered search engine.
