This bug affect me too. The weird part is that it doesn't happen in all textbox.
If it was a key that was lock, like SHIFT+HOME or CTRL+A, it would happen in all textboxes. But I can type really good this repport, and I got a user field in another tab that is in trouble. Also, their's absolutly no javascript associated with that user field. (I know, it's one of my website) It also happen on other places, like the other days, I could type my message in GMail. I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 x64, with the default Firefox installation. I also have the Firebug extension installed, but currently innactive. My computer is a Dell Zino HD, with a Microsoft Natural Keyboard. I've also experienced the problem on my laptop (thinkpad x61s) with Ubuntu 10.04 x32. Ho yeah, it seem to happen in textbox (input type=field), but I've also experienced the trouble in the GMail message area, so I guess that's a textarea. So I don't think it's the autocomplete, as the auto-complete should be triggered for textarea... But at the same time GMail is way too much dynamic, so they could trigger autocomplete function for syntax correction inside a textarea too. Well, I don't have any clue, but their's a real bug here. Also, right now I had the trouble with the user field as I said. But the interesting part is that I have 2 tabs openned: local (localhost), and remote. Both field on both version are having the problem at the exact same time. And other textfields in the same page are OK. IMPORTANT: ---------------- So the problem seem to be associated with the name of the field, or it's ID. I've also tried to: - delete all the autocomplete values going in the preference, privacy, and delete the Form & Search History ONLY - double click in the field and delete all the suggestion with the DEL key on hightlighted items ... and the problem disapeared in the problematic field, without even refreshing the tab. I'm sorry I didn't test out between those 2 actions, but I think we're having a clue here... -- Text Entry Boxes in Firefox sometimes get stuck in an endless "Select-All" making typing in them impossible https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/641300 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
