Description

[Marco Gallotta]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9b3) Gecko/2008020514 Firefox/3.0b3

Some of the text and/or highlight is not erased when deleting text. It happens with the cursor and characters with tails (e.g. jpq). When deleting these characters the lower tip is not erased, leaving behind some corruption. The same happens when selecting (highlighting) a group of characters and then hitting backspace/delete -- the lower two pixels or so of the dark blue selection area remain behind.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch Firefox 3 Beta 3
2. Hit Ctrl+F to bring up find bar
3. Type "jhp" excluding the quotes
4. Hit Ctrl+A to select all characters just typed in the find bar
5. The lower tip of the "j" and "p" will remain behind

1. Launch Firefox 3 Beta 3
2. Hit Ctrl+F to bring up find bar
3. Type "jhp" excluding the quotes
4. Hit backspace three times to delete all three characters just typed
5. Hit delete
6. The lower tip of the blue select box will remain as corruption
Actual Results:  
Corruption will occur. The lower tips of the characters/selection will remain behind.

Expected Results:  
No corruption.

This probably has the same cause as bug 412646.
