418725 - Unable to search all addons after initial search is cleared

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Toolkit :: Add-ons Manager, defect)

Description

[Marcia Knous [:marcia]]

Seen using Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9b4pre) Gecko/2008022004 Minefield/3.0b4pre.

STR:
1. Go to Addons from the Tool menu.
2. Focus the search box and type some text in the box. Hit Enter.
3. Click on Show All results to open the search in a new tab.
4. Click back to the search box and clear it using the "X' in preparation for another search. Try to type a new search term in the box.

Expected: More than 80% of the time I cannot type something new in the search box until I change focus to one of the other tabs in the Addons manager. In some cases I also cleared the text by erasing it with backspace and got the same result.

I tested this on Win XP and I don't see the same issue there.

Sorry about the dupe bugs - this happened when i launched a show results page and it seems that it submitted what i had written to date in the bug.

Old UI which has been removed with the rewrite of the EM in Firefox 4.
