387756 - text search feature no longer remembers Wrap setting

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Nelson Bolyard (seldom reads bugmail)]

The text search feature dialog, which you get by typing ctrl-F in a web page
or in the main email window or in a mail composer window, changed in the 
switch from 1.5a to 2.0a1.  Two of the changes are feature regressions.
They are:

1) Can no longer search backwards.  The old search dialog had 3 checkboxes, 
one of which was search backwards.  This is absent from 2.0a1.

2) The "wrap" checkbox is always checked when the search dialog comes up.
Previously it was not (initially) checked by default, and (IIRC) it 
remembered the wrap setting from one search to the next if you changed it.

Gee.  I must need sleep.  The up/down radio buttons clearly serve the 
purpose of backwards searches.  The only issue here is not remembering
my previous wrap setting.  It DOES remember my previous "Match Case" 
setting, just not the Wrap setting.

This also breaks window.find("", false, false, false, true) for instance.

Attachment: Also set default to wrap

This makes wrap the default but it remembers until restart if you turn it off.
