Details

Build ID:
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3

Steps to reproduce:
1) On client A, open the Firefox start page (http://www.google.com/firefox/) and enter search for different terms from the search bar.
2) Perform "Sync Now".You can also do so selecting Tools>Sync>Sync Now.
   Allow sync to complete.
3) On client B, select Tools > Weave > Sync Now. Allow sync to complete.
4) In client B, enter the same terms that you entered in the search bar of client A.

Actual Result:
The form fields/search entries are not saved. 

Expected Result:
All the form/search entries you added to client A, in step one, is merged with the data on client B in step 3. No data should be lost on either client as a result of this Weave sync.
Note:
Works with mail.yahoo.com. I entered my yahoo username in the text field. It was saved as a form field and after sync on client A and B, I was able to get that form field on client B when I opened the yahoo login page. So I wonder is this is an issue with websites using AJAX for search.

Sorry guys, please ignore the above comment #1. It does NOT work with yahoo. I might have logged in separately. So the issue still remains with all the form fields.
What version of the client were you testing with? Sounds like bug 568292.
