Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 260041

(Toolkit :: Find Toolbar, defect)

Description

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

When viewing a page withoug frames, I can use the "Begin finding when you begin
typing" feature to search for text in a link, and when I find it, I can hit
enter to use think link. This does not work on pages with frames. The actual
search takes place as in pages without frames when I begin typing (without first
opening the find bar), but if I reach a link and try to follow it by hitting
enter, nothing happens.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
0. * have "Begin findinging when you begin typing" enabled (in the advanced
options area)
1. open page with frames
2. begin typing to begin search which lands on a link
3. hit enter

Actual Results:  
nothing

Expected Results:  
follow the highlighted link

very sorry about some editing problems with the description:

line 1 reads "page withoug frames" but it should be "page without frames"
line 3 reads "enter to use think link" but it should be "enter to use the link"

how embarassing...

Looks like a dupe of bug 260041 to me.
