BUILD: linux 2001-02-16-08 STEPS TO REPRODUCE: try to select text (with mouse or shift-arrow) in url bar, text input widget, find dialog, anything like that. ACTUAL RESULTS: cannot select text EXPECTED RESULTS: select text NOTE: regression since the 2001-02-14-21 build. also, textareas and <editor /> fields work fine. ccing rods in case this is an HTML form controls problem, but I doubt it is. This bug makes it impossible to do text copying that is necessary for testing of a lot of browser fuctionality...

Severity: blocker → major
Summary: Cannot select text in text inputs, url bar, find dialog, etc. → Cannot select text in XUL text inputs (url bar, find dialog, preferences)
