278321 - Annoying keyboard shortcuts for find

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 264876

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Guillaume]

I had to complete over the last weeks a couple of forms on the internet, and I
have to say that using ' or / as shortcuts is really annoying.

When I used my browser for some time, while typing and filling a couple of forms
all of a sudden ' and / are poping up the search box, and you are continuing to
type not in the current field but in the search box.

The effect is not trigered with a new session and I'm not able to reproduce it
100% of the time but enough to be annoying. I know that there is some
workaround, but for someone who doesn't want (or know how) to edit the
configuration, it's a pain.
