84560 - intial arrow keys in URL bar broken

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: Location Bar, defect)

Description

[saari (gone)]

A regression happened that got introduced between 2001-05-24-09-trunk and 2001-
05-24-22-trunk with left and right arrow keys in text fields

Load a new browser window, click in the URL bar, try to left or right arrow. 
Doesn't move cursor. Other keybindings work.

And the winner is the checkin to nsDocShell.cpp setting the focused element to 
null!

Getting hyatt in on the fun

Perfectly harmless to set it to null :-)

Oh, I think I see it now.  The docshell should only be setting the focused 
element to null if its DOM window is the focused window (according to the 
comman dispatcher).  Otherwise you might be nulling out an element in a parent 
window (e.g., the chrome).

Hahahah.  Amazing.  I do not understand why that would have regressed this.

Sigh.
