If the alt key is held down and numbers are used to type special character keys, they special character is inserted into the Google toolbar searchbar.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install the Google Toolbar addon to Firefox
2. Go to a website that has a form in it (e.g. a webmail programme)
3. Hold the alt key and type, e.g., 0163 (with the number lock on)
Actual Results:
The "£" will not appear in the text but will appear in the Google toolbar, not in the form.
Expected Results:
The "£" should appear in the form. The alt key should not move the cursor location.
