425320 - Alt-left/right in location bar then left/right resets cursor position

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Toolkit :: Autocomplete, defect)

Description

[Ed Lee :Mardak]

On OS X, you use alt-left/right to move by words while ctrl on windows (and linux?)

If you press down to an entry then alt-left then press left, the cursor jumps back to the 2nd last character instead of wherever you alt-left'd to.

Check for ctrl on os x and alt for win/lin.

I hit this bug once or twice but never figured out the steps to reproduce.  Thanks for figuring this out (and fixing it).

a1.9? for Firefox 3

stephend: "OS X: Type a letter that causes the location bar autocomplete to open. Press down so the first result autofills then press alt-left to move the cursor left a word. Press left again. The cursor should be 1 left of the word."

Oh. I suppose it's not os X only. Windows/linux would be ctrl-left.
