911116 - In XML document search broken

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 449235

(Toolkit :: Find Toolbar, defect)

Description

[zajDee]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:23.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/23.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20130814063812

Steps to reproduce:

Subsequent searches in a document seem to search from last found string position onwards only (instead of looping through the whole document).

1. Load http://upccz.speedtest.net/speedtest-servers.php?x=1377852279623 (XML document containing list of Speedtest.net servers)
2. Search for "vodafone.cz" (occurence is found)
3. Search for "dkm.cz" (occurence is found)
4. search for "vodafone.cz" (the same as in step 2, this time not found at all)


Actual results:

Instead of looping through the document, Firefox just reports that the string is not present in the document. Backwards search does not help either.


Expected results:

Firefox should always find the occurence if it is present, or report that the end of page has been reached. Also, backwards search should find the occurence.

"Search" is about the search bar, not the find bar.

I've reproduce this bug on latest Aurora and Nightly while testing for the pre-beta sign-off of the Find Bar Redesign feature - marking it as NEW.

This behavior is present in FF8 so likely an old issue.

Likely the same underlying issue as bug 449235.
