(Toolkit :: Find Toolbar, defect)

Description

[Airidas Korolkovas]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6

I want to find specific words in a huge textarea field. If you click ctrl+f and
then type your words, Firefox doesn't look for these words in textarea and even
if they exist there, Find field goes red and starts beeping as you type.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click "Highlight"
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Firefox now highlighs the words in textarea in yellow, but Find field is still
red and angry.
