Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 252371

(Firefox :: Search, defect)

Description

[Andreas Wieland]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041108 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041108 Firefox/1.0

The new search that appears in the bottom of Firefox when selecting the search
function in the menu doesn't search the text of a form.

I.e. when searching in pages as
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Talk:Main_Page&action=edit in that
you want to search for a text while editing, it is impossible to do so. In
earlier versions of Firefox it worked well.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a webpage with a text in a form
2. Activate the search function from the menu
3. type in a text that appears in the form text

Actual Results:  
No text in the form was found, although there was a phrase I searched for.

Expected Results:  
Find the text!
