Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Toolkit :: Find Toolbar, defect)

Description

[Doug Reich]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041106 Firefox/1.0RC2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041106 Firefox/1.0RC2

When I simply type in a search phrase, find as you type works as expected and
goes to the first result on the page. However moving through the results using
"F3" instead pops up the "fast find" toolbar. This toolbar does not allow you to
search the results, although the "highlight" feature works perfectly.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. type in search text
2. hit "f3"
3. attempt to perform search with fastfind toolbar (which just popped up)

Actual Results:  
Firefox did not find the next match on the page; it had no reaction whatsoever.

Expected Results:  
It should have selected the next result on the page.

(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
