User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10

The new quick search box highlights the text found even on textboxes (correct I
guess), but when you clear the search box and the page shows again as normal,
the text boxes are still highlighted with the text that was previously searched.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.open a web site that contains any kind of text box
2.enter a text on the text box
3.open the quick search bar (the new one in 1.0PR)
4.type text on the search textbox matching content on the textbox and/or in the html
5.press highlight. the text hightlights on the page and on the textbox
6.clear the search textbox

Actual Results:  
The searched text is still hightlighted on the textbox(es)

Expected Results:  
Restore the default colors on the textbox.

I'm not using a special theme (default). It is a fresh install. I had themes
installed before in the 0.9.3 version but are not selected actually (just
disabled by the setup)

Bug 240432 is about the implementation of the highlight-feature and comment #7
(http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=240432#c7) is about the described
problem with text field/area.
So this bug ist probably a dublicate of Bug 240432
