Description

[Chu Alan]

If you use Ctrl+F to search a web page and enter any string that is not present
on that web page, press enter to search it, after there is and alert box saying
"The text you entered was not found", the search box will ignore keyboard input
(even the tab key).

worksfor me on win 98 build 2001022805 assuming you close the "not found" dialog.

reporter please reopen if you continue to have a problem.  please post more
information if possible such as your build id, the page you were searching, and
possibly the words you were searching for.

VERIFIED WFM (I believe it was actually invalid). For future reference Find does not equal
Search and bugs of this type should go to XP Apps:GUI.

um ... just downloaded 0.8.1, but the problem still exists, may be my
information is not enough, here is the procedure i used :-

1. Press Ctr+F to find the page
2. type a string that will return no match
3. after seeing the "The text you entered was not found" alert, press enter to
close it.
4. try to press some keys on your keyboard.

P.S. do not use mouse.
