When trying to type into a text box, (such as this one) FF moves the carat into
the fast find box, and stops typing in the text box. This was all typed in Kate,
and pasted into the text box. Only seems to happen in Bugzilla

Was any firefox window (plugin finder etc..) open at the same time you tried to
enter text into the text box?

Not that I remember. Only had one FF window, open, using TBP 0.6.14. I tried
closing down FF and trying again. Found the problem when I was trying to add a
comment on another bug. However, after a re-boot of the system, I can no longer
replicate the original problem.

I also ran across this bug trying to rename an album in gallery.  I have "Find
text as you type" enabled.  hitting backspace with the find bar up deletes
characters from the findbar, but not the textbox.  if the text is not found, it
does not reposition my cursor, and enters text in the textbox.  if the find bar
closes and then i hit backspace, it deletes text from the textbox.
reproducible: intermittent
os: windows 2000

I've seen this intermittently at http://www.fanfiction.net/search.php - it is
annoying. WinXP HE, firefox .10
