Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 88164

(Core :: Layout: Form Controls, defect)

Description

[andrew musgrave]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.2) Gecko/20010628
BuildID:    2001062823

To reproduce the bug...

Type in a couple of lines of text. Go to one of them and hit "End" key to go the
end of the line. Hit the back arrow key and the forward arrow keys. If you have
this bug, you won't be able to move.

Saw that something similar to this was reported as having crashed a browser, but
I didn't have that symptom, so I thought I'd submit.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to www.sqlcourse.com (or any page with textarea widget)
2. Type in two lines of text.
3. Go to the first line, hit the "End" key (next to Delete, Home, etc.)
4. Try to use either the forward or back key.
(in addition...)
5. Hit the up or down arrow key (does work), then try hitting forward and back
(still won't work).

Actual Results:  Cursor stays put.

Expected Results:  Cursor should have had free movement, either moving back a
character or wrapping to the next line.
