This is a little difference than bug 74823, please mark as dup if they are because the same reason. Build: 03-29 or 04-04 Mtrunk Steps to reproduce: 1. Launch the browser and go to some Japanese page, e.g. http://home.netscape.com/ja 2. In the Search field, type some Japanese characters, don't choose the first default Japanese character, then hit space, choose one of other choice in candidate window. Note: If you choose the first default Japanese character by press space key and go circle around back to it, you will see the problem too. Result: 1. After you move the highlight a few times, the character in browser search field won't match it highlighted character in IME candidate window. 2. Try to convert the character by press enter key, the character still keep highlighted and there is red underline with it. 3. if you think it's not the correct character that you want to change it, move the mouse cursor focus on the search field, press "backspace" or "Delete" key try to delete it, the character won't get deleted.
Actually, there is another issue here but I'm not sure if I need open another bug or not, I'm adding in here: After finished the steps above, no matter you turning on or off IME, you can not type anything any more, that means doesn't matter with English or Japanese characters, you can not type in neither URL field nor search field.

Thank you for reporting problem. I understand this problem happens because candidate window grabs input focus while composing characters (bug 52416). Please try the workaround in bug 47568 that configuring window manager not to give input focus to candidate window. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 52416 ***
