From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.2.12-20 i686; en-US; m14) Gecko/20000415
BuildID: 2000041508
After switching to different open windows, or attempting to click in the url
area while a page is loading, the url becomes uneditable and unclickable. The
black arrow remains when the mouse pointer is moved above the text field,
instead of becoming an I bar.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to google.com
2. click on the 'about google' link
3. click on the url area
Actual Results: the url area is no longer editable
Expected Results: the url should become editable
this was the most reproducible using the above method, but changing web browser
windows appeared to have a similar, though less reliable effect. It can be
worked around by spawning a new window which will then have an editable url...

Build 2000041515, Win95B. I went to http://google.com, then clicked on the
About link. I clicked on the URL bar to edit the line, and it works for me.

fstmm@yahoo.com: What is your homepage? Does it consists of frames?
Does the bug still occur if you set your homepage to www.mozilla.org,
or start mozilla this way:
mozilla http://www.mozilla.org/
See bug 32120 and bug 31485 for known problems where the location bar
becomes unclickable. (The is the case if the homepage consists of frames
or has an <input type=password> form element in it.)
By the way, these known bugs seem to be linux only.

Using google.com as homepage, I could reproduce the problem with
the method described in bug 31485, using builds
2000-04-18-16-M16 and
2000-04-18-11-M15.
(The M16 build does not show any Gdk-CRITICAL messages,
but the problem with the unaccessible location field
is the same.)
This simplified testcase is:
<html>
<head>
<title>Bug 31485 (google.com)</title>
<script>
function setFocus() {
document.f.q.focus();
}
</script>
</head>
<body onLoad="setFocus()">
<form name=f>
<input name=q>
</form>
</body>
</html>
Marking duplicate. I'm going to add the relevant information
to the other bug soon.
