When opening a new tab (via Alt-Tab) while viewing a website in full screen mode, the address bar, upon clicking on it to enter an address, retains the test "Search Bookmarks and History". The text can be edited, retaining the colour grey. Attempting to enter a URL or search term, no action occurs (the address bar does not work).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. View a website in full-screen mode
2. Open a new tab via Alt-Tab and move the mouse to the top of the screen to reveal the address bar
3. Click on the address bar to enter an address
Actual Results:  
Text in the address bar was grey in colour and the address bar did not function

Expected Results:  
The text "Search Bookmarks and History" to disappear, text to be coloured black and for the address bar to function

Using Firefox 3.5.2 on a Medion MIM2080 laptop, under XP SP3. The website being accessed was http://store.apple.com/Catalog/uk/Images/salespolicies_individual.html, although this bug occurs an any web page.
