415429 - Search Bar jumps around in RTL mode

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox :: Search, defect)

Description

[Shoshannah Forbes]

Attachment: After jump

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; he; rv:1.9b3pre) Gecko/2008020204 Minefield/3.0b3pre, Hebrew UI.

The search bar incorrectly jumps around in the Hebrew UI: When it is blank and does not have focus, the drop down is on the left and the search box is on the right.

However, when it has text in it/gets focus, the search box jumps, and the drop down is now on the right with the search box is on the left.

This is extremly annoying.

Steps to repro:
1) install latest nightly build, Hebrew UI
2) make sure the search bar is visible
3) click in the search bar or use ctrl+k to get focus
4) observer the jump

Comments:
it looks like while the actual dearch box stays RTL, the element order is no longer RTL. See attached screenshots

Mass-assigning the new rtl keyword to RTL-related (see bug 349193).
