268400 - Find as you type ignores contents of text boxes

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 252371

(Toolkit :: Find Toolbar, defect)

Description

[home]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1

When using content management applications (wikis etc) it is often useful to
find text within the text box being edited. This feature works in IE and, if my
memory serves me correctly, worked in Firefox before the Find dialogue was
replaced with the Find toolbar.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a web page with editable text box
2. Fill it with text
3. Use the find bar to search for a word in the text box.

Actual Results:  
The "Phrase not found" warning shows on the Find bar.

Expected Results:  
Found the text I was searching for in the text box.
