Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Search, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008051206 Firefox/3.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008051206 Firefox/3.0

A search for keywords divided by spaces can not be immediately cleared.

Waiting a wee bit more (a couple of milliseconds) and then hitting delete or backspace does work.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. type "test test test test" in search box
2. hit ctrl-e and immediately hit delete or backspace
Actual Results:  
If you hit delete, see "test test test" (only the first word before the space deleted).
If you hit backspace, see nothing deleted (cursor moved before first word).

Expected Results:  
In either way, see search box cleared.
