311676 - selecting an entry in the history dropdown doesn't work (autocomplete broken)

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox :: Address Bar, defect)

Description

[Dave Townsend [:mossop]]

After typing in the location bar and the autocomplete drops down, clicking on an
option with the mouse or pressing enter on one just clears the location bar and
doesnt go to the address.

if u move the cursor around in the address bar after selecting the address with
the keyboard, but before hitting enter, it works. also if u select text, delete
text, anything that moves that cursor around from the end of the address.

It seems like selecting the first option is the only thing that's broken --
selecting any choice after the first (at least in the Firefox URL bar) works fine.

I tried locally backing out the checkins for 240627 and 70698 and it didn't help.

When selecting an item from the location bar history using a mouse, the selection populates the location bar but does not navigate to the destination.
