Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox :: Extension Compatibility, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; WOW64; rv:2.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; WOW64; rv:2.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0.1

When typing in the location bar field, a drop down appears as normal with previous sites that match the text entered so far.

If a site is selected from this list by using the down arrow key and pressing enter when the desired site is highlighted. Firefox browses to the page as expected but the drop down list still shows.

If instead of using the down arrow and enter keys, the mouse pointer is sued to select the desired page then the page is displayed and the drop down list disappears.

Seems to be an issue with keyboard use.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enter text in location bar - a list of previous sites should appear in drop down
2. Press down arrow key to highlight desired page
3. Press enter key, page is displayed yet drop down still displayed 

Actual Results:  
Drop down list of previous sites still displayed over web page

Expected Results:  
Drop down list should disappear when enter key pressed as it does when mouse is used to select page.

This did not appear after a version upgrade, so I'm guessing it may be a plugin/addon issue.

Is your Issue reproducible in Safe-Mode?

In Safe-Mode it works fine.

I presume this means it's a plugin/addon issue? If so I'll try and track down which one and let the author know. 

Can you confirm this means it's definitely a plugin/addon issue?

Thanks for your time

Seems to be an Extension Issue then, indeed. You could try disabling all Addons from the Safemode Dialog and then enable them one-by-one in normal Mode.

Please report its Name back here so it can be tracked and/or report it to its Author.

Setting this as Resolved it's an extension issue. Feel free to reopen it if you still see this issue on a clean FX profile. Thanks.
