Closed Bug 608517 Opened 15 years ago Closed 15 years ago

In reddit, I cannot type a comment. Sometimes, I cannot type into the URL bar. I got to bugzilla to report it, and I could not type text there, either.

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9.1.12) Gecko/20100824 Firefox/3.5.12 Build Identifier: Version 2.1a1pre (1.9.2.13pre 20101029001904) CAMINO I was trying the nightly build [Version 2.1a1pre (1.9.2.13pre 20101029001904)], and found that often (but not every single time), I cannot type text into boxes, much like the one I'm typing in now. It's so often, I switched to Firefox to fill this out. I'm no computer guy (hell, I use a macbook), but I think the other Camino I used was better in that capacity. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to reddit. 2. Log in. 3. Find funny thread. 4. Try to reply, using witty comment. 5. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!! Actual Results: Switched to Firefox, but comment no longer seemed funny, so I abandoned the idea and came to inform Mozilla. Expected Results: It would have been nice if I was able to type. Comment was pretty funny at the time, I bet I would have gotten some good comment karma from it. I like Camino and Firefox, and I use Thunderbird exclusively. Keep up the good work. We're all counting on you.
Oddly enough, it wouldn't have happened on a Bugzilla page ;) This is probably a dupe of either bug 600187 or bug 600527 (which in turn is likely a dupe of the former bug).

Brian, what setting do you have for Camino > Preferences > Tabs - 'Links that would open new windows' ? Is it checked ? On redit, when you run into that situation: if you click in another window, or on the desktop, and then back in the Camino window, does that restore the focus for the textfield and allow you to type ?
Brian, can you please answer the questions in comment 2?
