728739 - Location bar in 10.0.2 will not accept 'return' ('Go to the address in location bar' arrow icon does work ok)

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[Phiz Hicks]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:10.0.2) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/10.0.2
Build ID: 20120215223356

Steps to reproduce:

Just upgraded to 10.0.2
Entered URL in location bar (e.g. www.bugzilla.org)
Hit return key


Actual results:

Nothing happens


Expected results:

www.bugzilla.org home page should have been requested

Note that search bar works fine, I can enter URL there, hit return and the google search page is returned with the URL as one of the hits (I can then click on that and the URL page is retrieved correctly). Note also that the 'Go to the address in location bar' arrow in the location bar behaves correctly, i.e if I click on that then the browser retrieves the web page for the URL.

Note also that I have adblock installed.

No problem with previous Firefox version 9 or earlier.

Reverting to Firefox 9.0b6 resolves issue

Comment 5

Upgraded to Firefox 11.0 beta, this resolves issue also (but only add-ons enabled are "AdBlock Plus", "avast! Webrep" and "Test Pilot").
