[Claudius Gayle]

Overview Description: 

  Very straightforward, the search button (next to the location field) does not work on Mac.

Steps to Reproduce: 

1) Type something in the location field.

2) Click SEARCH.


Actual Results: 

	Nada. Nothing. You get the depressed button look but nothing happens

Expected Results: 

	Do a search on the text.

Build Date & Platform Bug Found: 

	MAC ONLY. This bug actually showed up in the 2000040309 Mac build(was a part of bug 34321) and is still evident in the 
2000040410 builds.

Additional Builds and Platforms Tested On: 

Tested on Linux and WinNT builds and not a problem with 2000040409 builds.

m16). thx!

this applies to mozilla bits as well. Combined with bug 35032 there is no workaround and therefore no search functionality at all 
on the Mac.

cc'ing rjc (like i should've long ago) and submitting for nsbeta2. THERE IS NO SEARCH ON THE MAC.
This bug and bug 35032 probably have the same root cause.

Some further testing has shown that the search button doesn't work when the location field is 'dirty' (you've typed something 
there) but seems to work when just the url for the page you're viewing is showing.

I'm hoping this is just a packaging issue as I just checked a debug Mac build and everything is fine there.
