306064 - using key "/" brings up flashbar but does not put cursor in "find" field.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 305840

(Toolkit :: Find Toolbar, defect)

Description

[Tyson Henrie]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20050826 Firefox/1.6a1

If I use the key "/" to initiate a typeahead find, the flash bar is correctly 
opened.  However, the cursor is not placed into the "find" field of the flash 
bar.  Hitting "tab" will not bring the cursor into the "find" field of the 
flash bar.  So now you must use the mouse to click the "find" field.

Same problem with "Begin finding when begin typing".  I open a url then start 
typing.  The flash bar is enabled, but the cursor is not in the "find" field 
of the flash bar.  So this feature did not work.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. press "/" key
2. start typing
3. no search happens

Actual Results:  
Since the cursor is not placed in the "find" field of the flash bar, you must 
use the mouse to select the "find" field.  This kind of defeats the purpose of 
the "typeahead" find.

Expected Results:  
After selecting the "/" key the cursor should already be in the "find" field 
of the flash bar.  This way you can immediately start typing your search words.
