(if the whole text is yellow it is difficult to get the cursor right beside the text. If you select all via the context menu and then press arrow-right the cursor is right beside the text.) Expected Results: 1. highlighting of edit fields should be updated correctly 2. it should be possible to move the cursor through higlighted parts of edit fields

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
