It's really hard to explain this bug without try it out yourself.
Please see steps to reproduce, or watch the flash movie about this strange behavior:

(The movie is in Chinese, but that doesn't really matter.)


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to http://wiki.moztw.org/index.php?title=AMO_%E7%B6%B2%E7%AB%99%E7%BF%BB%E8%AD%AF&oldid=13095
2. press ctrl+F to open the Find toolbar
3. entering "email address" in the search field on the toolbar. (make sure you leave the case sensitivity checkbox blank.)
4. press F3 to find next entry
Actual Results:  
Firefox stop on the string "email address" in the cell after "error_user_email_notunique."

Expected Results:

More related strange behaviors:

This fails with a trunk build from 2007-01-28, but succeeds with a 2007-01-30, so this is essentially a dupe of bug 336279.
