Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Address Bar, defect)

Description

[Ed Resnick]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20061026 Minefield/3.0a1

If you type something on the address bar, but don't navigate to that URL yet, clicking View->Toolbars->Customize, then closing the dialog that appears, resets the address bar to the actual page you're looking at, losing your custom text. However, switching to another tab and back restores the text you typed. So it hasn't forgotten what you wrote, but closing the customize dialog prints the current URL in the address bar instead of what you wrote.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Navigate to "http://www.google.com".
2. Change the "www" to "maps" but do not press enter.
3. Go to View->Toolbars->Customize.
4. Click "Done" on the pop-up that appears.
Actual Results:  
The address bar says "http://www.google.com"

Expected Results:  
The address bar should say "http://maps.google.com"

We need to use gBrowser.selectedBrowser.userTypedValue here: http://bonsai.mozilla.org/cvsblame.cgi?file=mozilla/browser/base/content/browser.js&rev=1.726&mark=3348,3350#3329.

Use what's currently in the location bar

Er... this fails if someone didn't type in a URL; e.g. just clicked a link to get to a page.
