537319 - Ctrl+F find does not wrap around in XML tree-view documents

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 263049

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Sean Hunt]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.6) Gecko/20091215 Ubuntu/9.10 (karmic) Firefox/3.5.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.6) Gecko/20091215 Ubuntu/9.10 (karmic) Firefox/3.5.6

When Firefox is displaying an XML document in tree view (because there is no style information for it), the find command will not wrap around to the beginning of the document when it finds no more instances of the search phrase remaining.

Workaround: Scroll to the top of the page and select some text there/place the caret there, and resume the search.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open an xml document in firefox with no style information, so that firefox displays the document tree.
2. Press Ctrl-F
3. Type in a phrase that occurs in the document in the find bar
4. Press the 'Next' button repeatedly
Actual Results:  
Once the last instance of the phrase in the document is selected, clicking 'Next' again makes it pop up with 'Phrase not found'

Expected Results:  
Firefox should go to the first instance of the phrase in the document, displaying the text "Reached end of page, continued from top"
