358827 - Quick Find does not display all options

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 347259

(Toolkit :: Find Toolbar, defect)

Description

[randomshelley]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0

The Quick Find bar ("Search for text when I start typing") no longer displays all find bar options in Firefox 2.0 (such as Next, Previous, etc).

This was available in Firefox 1.x and was a great convenience especially when using shortcut commands (alt+n, etc).  Now the Quick Find can only be used to easily find the first instance of search criteria.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable the "Search for text when I start typing" option
2. Start typing to enable the quick find

Actual Results:  
There are no "next" or "previous" options, etc. available

Expected Results:  
The full Find Bar options would be available, including "next," "previous," "highlight all," etc.

I am unsure what the motivation behind removing this was. now we have an empty bar with no tools. This feature was essential for me, especially when doing research. I am downgrading to 1.5.x series again until this comes back, I just feel so helpless without it :(
