I just download the upstream build of Firefox, and it does display the same behaviour. So I guess that it’s not due to an issue of the installation of Firefox in my system. Maybe it’s an issue with a package that Firefox is using that happens to have a bug in my computer? It’s very difficult to diagnose and the fact that it seems that only one computer is affected makes it even more difficult (but at the same time makes it less important too, I guess). If I can run something that can help diagnose this, I would be happy to help (although not next month: I will be moving and unfortunately won’t have much time for this, sorry). I’m going to open a bug in Bugzilla.

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Hi, This is probably the most unexpected bug that I have ever seen. Fortunately, it is benign. How to reproduce: - Go to the webpage https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_js_autocomplete.asp - Type Ctrl+f to look for a word through the webpage. - Search for addEventListener. Firefox successfully found 4 occurrences on the webpage. - Using the arrows next to the search box, loop through all occurrences. Firefox then jumps to the following occurrences, in order: 1. inp.addEventListener("input", function(e) { 2. b.addEventListener("click", function(e) { 3. inp.addEventListener("keydown", function(e) { (In my screen is, it was hidden by the message about cookies: scrolling down by 1cm makes it appear.) 4. document.addEventListener("click", function (e) { 5. First occurrence again: inp.addEventListener("input", function(e) { 6. Second occurrence again: b.addEventListener("click", function(e) { 7. Firefox then directly jumps to the fourth occurrence, missing the third one: document.addEventListener("click", function (e) { 8. (goes back to 5). In other words, although the first cycle through all occurrences was correct, the following cycles completely miss the third occurrence! I have restarted Firefox and still get this behaviour. If instead of clicking on the “down” arrow to look for the second occurrence one looks backwards with the “up” arrow, then it is “b.addEventListener("click", function(e) {” instead of “inp.addEventListener("keydown", function(e) {” which is missing from the loop: it seems that whenever cycling through all occurrences of a search in a webpage, if there are only four occurrences, then the third one is never reached except in the first cycle. I am sending a screenshot of the situation. This is a very unexpected behaviour, but of very minor consequence: there is no need to place a high level of importance for this bug, I guess.
