378988 - control+shift+arrow selects the whole url instead of portions of it

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 190615

(Firefox :: Address Bar, defect)

Description

[Hemanth Sambrani]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i386; en-US; rv:1.8.1.3) Gecko/20070309 Firefox/2.0.0.3
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i386; en-US; rv:1.8.1.3) Gecko/20070309 Firefox/2.0.0.3

 Control+shift+arrow combination should select portions of the url, instead it selects all of it.
e.g. If the url is https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Firefox
and I click right at the end and press the above key combination, I expect it to first select "Firefox", then "product=Firefox" and so on.
This works as expected on Windows. I'm running linux-firefox on FreeBSD4 (where it does not work)

Reproducible: Always

You can manually set layout.word_select.stop_at_punctuation to "true" to get the behavior you want.
