Title: Firefox address bar search displays proxy error page for single word queries Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Confirmed Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: The problems transpire when searching for single words using the address bar in Firefox. When I have Firefox proxy settings set to "Auto Detect" this feature works fine. (Q: is the proxy being used then?) When explicitly setting the proxy settings in Firefox this fails sending me to http://query/ (displaying the proxy's error page). It also fails, when configuring the proxy via PAC file (last option in the settings). (Initially reported for version 2.0.0.1+0dfsg-0ubuntu0.6.10 under edgy) TEST CASE (from comment #7): 1. Add proxy to Firefox conntections. - Tools > Options > Advanced > Network. - Click Settings under Connections. - Select Manual proxy configuration and enter valid proxy details to use for HTTP. - Apply settings. 2. Enter a search term in Firefox's address bar, e.g. "query", and press enter. What happens in this situation is Firefox attempts to reach "http://query/";, which of course is non existent. What should happen normally is "query" is searched with Google.
