605074 - [Search Field] Allow first input char to be a number/integer

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 597399

(Firefox Graveyard :: Panorama, defect)

Description

[Maniac Vlad Florin (:vladmaniac)]

Build ID:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:2.0b8pre) Gecko/20101017 Firefox/4.0b8pre

=========================================================================

Prerequisites:
Clean FF profile 
No extensions
Standard QWERTY - EU keyboard 

=========================================================================

Steps: 
1. Make sure you have some pages opened in different tabs
2. Open tab candy 
3. [optional] Create new groups 
4. Perform a keyboard event onPress(), tapping in the search field one of the 
numbers from the QWERTY. 

===========================================================================

Behavior: 
When first input char is an integer, text field sees it as an Upper Case letter. for e.g. input '1' - result 'Q', input '2' - result 'W' 

We should not have this, since websites like www.123.com will not return a search result in tab candy

Note that this bug only occurs when you are in the Panorama UI (without the search button being hit). Numbers work just fine after you hit the search button.

Assigning to Aza for coding.
