Try typing a few words in a textbox, and then try selecting just one word with
the mouse. It doesn't work -- the whole textbox ends up being selected.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Type a few words in a textbox
2. Try to select just one word
3. Observe that the whole textbox ends up being selected
Actual Results: The whole textbox ends up being selected.
Expected Results: Just that word should have been selected
I have only tested this with NT, but I suspect that all win32 varieties are
affected.
This was bug 51856 - "textarea/textfield can only select all, partial selections
not working".
It was fixed later on the 8th. Please try a newer build.
Marking dup.
