Note, there will be no Apport crash file if it's a Firefox crash, but
there will be an opportunity to submit a crash report to the upstream
crash database. Once you've done this, feel free to open a new bug
report by following the guidelines in
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs.
(as this bug was originally opened against unity, it doesn't contain any
of the Firefox-specific Apport data which is mandatory when reporting
Firefox bugs. so you need to open a new report in any case)

Title:
HUD search causes firefox to crash
Status in Unity:
Incomplete
Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Searching for any text causes Firefox 13.0.1 to crash on Ubuntu 12.04
( both 32 & 64 bit **1).
Test case:
1. Hit ALT to bring up the HUD search box
2. Type one or more words into the textbox.
Expected result:
1. HUD appears ready to search
2. Results appear depending on the search term.
What actually happens:
1. HUD appears ready to search
2. Results appear, however firefox crashes shortly after.
== Additional information ==
Running firefox in safe mode makes HUD ignore firefox. In this
situation Firefox doesn't crash.
**1: I can reproduce this bug on 64 bit Ubuntu. Peter Cawkell is
experiencing this bug on 32 bit ( see coments )
