Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
I use a french Firefox (3.0.5+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.1).
When I select some text and right-click it, I expect the context menu search
item to use the currently selected search engine.
But this is what happens:
when I select some text, do a right-click and Firefox is in "wide screen" mode
(F11), the menu item for searching always uses Google instead of the currently
selected engine. If I exit wide screen mode, the right engine is used without
doing any further action. Note that if I am in wide screen mode, select some
text, move the cursor to the top to make appear the search bar, click inside
the search bar, then move the cursor back to the selected text (the search bar
stays visible as it has focus) and right-click, the right engine menu is used.
This means that the wrong engine is used only in wide screen mode and the
search bar is not visible.
Thanks in advance.
