225270 - enabling links only search for type ahead find causes find in page dialog to miss first match

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Camino Graveyard :: Accessibility, defect)

Description

[Michael Meisel]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20021104 Chimera/0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20021104 Chimera/0.6

In 2003111013, I enabled accessibility.typeaheadfind.linksonly in my user.js
file and now the find in page dialog doesn't catch the first match. I know this
is a hidden preference, but I prefer to use type-ahead find for links only and
to use the find in page dialog for everything else. This option is not hidden
(in fact, it's the default) in Firebird.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. add the line user_pref("accessibility.typeaheadfind.linksonly", true); to user.js
2. open camino and search for non-link text on a page
3.

Actual Results:  
skips first match.

Expected Results:  
catch first match.

What version of Camino are you using? a 2002 build? Try the latest build:
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/camino/nightly/latest/Camino.dmg.gz

As I mentioned, I am using build 2003111013, meaning the nightly build from
11/10/2003 (today).

Opps I was looking at the User-Agent, sorry

But still WFM 2003111013

Try to use a clean profile (moving your Chimera folder in ~/Library/Applicatio\
Support/) with only the linksonly pref in user.js

Ah, I think I found the actual problem. Even with nothing selected, Camino
searches only after the location of the last click and does not wrap around even
with the wrap around box checked.

Gotcha... umm I can do wrap around search with findasyoutype. If need be file a
new bug about wrap around search if the problem persists.
