Description

[Ashutosh Naik]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051025 Firefox/1.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051025 Firefox/1.5

When a new tab is opened in the browser,after doing a google search with the previous tab using the googe search field, the google toolbar search field should be empty. However, the field still shows the previous search.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open the browser,type some search string in the google search field.
2.Open a new tab ( By Pressing Ctrl+T)
3.The Google Search field string is not refreshed and made empty, instead it still reflects the last search string.
Actual Results:  
The search string in the Google Search field is not refreshed and made empty, instead it still reflects the last search string

Expected Results:  
The google search field string should be empty and cleared. This would help making a new search. With the current features, I have to go to the search field, manually delete the previous search string and then type a new search string.
