641797 - When using Japanese (anthy) IME, clicking in the URL bar clones the characters

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Widget: Gtk, defect)

Description

[George Carstoiu]

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:2.0b13pre) Gecko/20110314 Firefox/4.0b13pre

After changing input to Japanese (anthy), writing something in the location bar and clicking, the character clone themselves.

Steps to reproduce:
 1. Change IME to Japonese - System-> Preferences->Ibus Preferences | Input method
 2. Open Firefox and write something in the URL bar (some of the characters should be Japonese symbols)
 3. Left click with the mouse in URL bar.

Actual results:
 - the characters are cloned

Expected results:
 - nothing happens

Note:
 - when switching back to English, same behavior can be observed
 - sometimes, although, other language is selected, FF does not switch

well-known ResetInputState() issue

Currently, with iBus and Fcitx, composition string is committed by left button click normally. I'm not sure about with other IME's behavior.

Anyway, marking this bug as WORKSFORME. If you still have same problem with other IME or specific settings, please file bugs for each of them.
