From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:0.9.2) Gecko/20010628 BuildID: 2001062815 After typing some text in a <TEXTAREA> field and using the arrow keys to correct typos and review my text, the arrow keys stop working as they should. There seem to be three problems: -Mozilla suddenly slows down and takes a few seconds to calculate whatever. This could be a feature of my slow machine or an unrelated issue. -The left and right arrow keys only work on the same line, i.e. you can push right until you reach the end of the last word but it will not move the cursor to the next line. Up and down work fine -The left and right do not work at all. Up and down may be similarly affected. The problem invariably goes away after focus away from the <TEXTAREA> field and returning. This bug does not appear to be dangerous, just highly annoying. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Open a page with a textarea field, such as http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77675 2.Type for a while, moving back and forth to correct typos. May take a couple of tries but in the end it always comes. Actual Results: Left and right arrow keys either don't move you to the next line or don't work at all. Expected Results: work like they did. This has happens to me on other sites as well, as well as once during the typing of this report. I don't recall this was present in early builds I used (such as 0.8 or 0.9) but I might be wrong. I entered it as an Editor bug as I recall forms editing is handled by the same component. Apologies if it should be elsewhere.
