390481 - sometimes different signs appear than those that were typed.

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: General, defect)

Description

[Peter van der Woude [:Peter6]]

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a7pre) Gecko/2007073118 Minefield/3.0a7pre ID:2007073118.

repro:
Open a page with a textbox (Gmail, Moz forums etc)
type some signs

result:
Like your keyboard is screwed up.
The signs you typed aren't the ones that appear in the text box

e.g. I get a = iinstead of a /
All signs are replaces by others.

In all other apps it works as expected.

reproducible:
not really, it sometimes happens, say with 1 in 50 gmails

solution:
restart FF

This has regressed in the last week of july 2007, needless to say, w/o a reliable reproduction it's impossible to tell what caused this.

No unusual messages in the errorconsole

this appears to have gone away.
Resolving for the time being
