Details

After a failed search, key input no longer enter the search dialog, making it impossible to do a new search of close the window by keyboard. Steps to reproduce: 1. Open a web page 2. Open the search dialog (CTRL-F) 3. Enter something like dfhjsdfhjksdhfkjs 4. Watch the "The text entered was not found" dialog and dismiss it with ESC 5. Press ESC to close the search dialog (or try TAB or enter some letters) Actual: Nothing happens. Expected: The dialog should close (or the focus move or new text be entered into the text field). Workaround: Reach for your mouse and click in the search dialog. I have seen this for a long time but this was on a home made build from about 2001-03-07 on Windows 2000.

Heh indeed this is a dup of bug 54936 (focus lost after dialog dismissal)
Since Daniel didn't want to recieve the email with my comment, I'm going ahead and marking this as a dup directly.

What do you mean, didn't want to recieve the comment? I have only filtered CC-changes, and nothing else. Fabian, if this is a bug in the new Bugzilla, please file it asap because this is dataloss. I wonder how many other comments I have missad that I should have reacted to. :-(
Testing with new account. I expect a mail since I change the comment.
Mail was sent and received. Now I will add a comment, and add myself to the CC: Mail should be sent to bratell@lysator.liu.se.
Forgot to add myself to the cc. I'm sorry for the spam, but I relly want to see if there are a bug. That would be a disaster.
Ouch. There _is_ a bug. Both me and someone else (hixie?) were filtered from the previous mail, just because a change to the cc was done. This is really, really, really bad. I will file bug.
I reported it in bug 71611.
wow a good thing we caught this confirmed : the comment where you said "Forgot to add myself to the cc. I'm sorry for the spam, but I relly want to see if there are a bug. That would be a disaster. " (the one where the CC was changed) was NOT sent to me. Ugh. And I assume it's the same if you change a keyword or something like that. Dang.
Fixing earlier database screwup. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 54936 ***
ever wonder why the 'search' dialog would be accessed by Ctrl-F? Maybe b/c it's the 'Find' dialog. Making useless changes to summary and component (for historical accuracy) as i mark this VERIFIED Dupe.
