37270 - Behaviour of alert when the url is not found

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 33518

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect, P3)

Description

[Shankar N]

This happens on M15 on NT4.
Type an invalid URL such as www.mozilla.org1 and hit enter.
You get an alert that the site is not found. If you click ok you are fine.
However if you hit enter instead, the msgbox correctly disappears but the enter
is processed as a new URL and the browser retries to connect to the same invalid
url. That is, 'Enter' is processed both on msgbox window and location bar.
Only enter keystroke has this problem.
This does not appear to be a focus issue, even you select the msgbox (single
click on the msgbox window) and hit enter the behavior can be seen.
Alt-F4 closes only the message box (correct behaviour).

This is a DUP of bug 33518, "hitting return in dialog passes through to 
location bar", M19. This problem did not appear to be present in yesterday's
M16 nightly binary on WinNT. Thanks for the detail.
