Bartosz Dziewoński <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|UNCONFIRMED |NEW Ever confirmed|0 |1 --- Comment #8 from Bartosz Dziewoński <[email protected]> --- I installed Firefox 3.6 to do some testing, and googled around. The suggestions list entries you're clicking on are simple links (<a> elements), with some magic dust sprinkled on them to e.g. update the form field when you click them (in addition to doing the default link action – sending you to the target page). These additional actions also include hiding the list of suggestions, which means hiding the link that was just clicked. This happens during the handling of the default action (visiting the target page). The problem is that Firefox 3.6, unlike other browsers, will not perform the default action if the link is not visible to the user – and it isn't, because we've just hidden it. It doesn't care that it was visible when clicked. We could probably try working around this by hiding the list after the new page starts loading. The code is rather brittle, though, so this will require some boring testing :( -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
