Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 344422

(Toolkit :: Find Toolbar, defect)

Description

[Tomer Altman]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20061001 Minefield/3.0a1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/2006100104 Minefield/3.0a1

The quickfind bar (invoked by typing letters on the page) is different from the "ctrl-f" find bar (invoked by pressing ctrl-f).

The "ctrl-f" bar has additional buttons compared to the quickfind bar (next,prev, highlight, match case) which can reasonably be present on the quick find bar.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. invoke quickfind by typing characters on the page, outside a control
2. compare to the ctrl-f invoked find bar

Actual Results:  
The two bars are different in functionality and not only in life duration.

Expected Results:  
Both bars should have all the buttons for simple searches, if even a different bar. The only reasonable difference is auto-hide for the quickfind bar after a timeout.

The difference is intentional

And if you want it reverted, to your userChrome.css file, add

#FindToolbar > * {display:-moz-box}
