If you use branch nightlies, you'll probably get update notifications for the data: security fix, even though that fix is included in the nightlies. To fix these bogus update notifications, go to about:config and change app.version from 0.10 to 0.10.1.

    Hey Jesse,

    Should someone re-open bug 263263 so that the issue posted by — Additional Comment #18 From Andrei Segal 2004-10-14 08:11 PDT [reply] — is addressed? I don’t have sufficient privileges but I’m sure the issue posed has direct ramifications for the user.

    Thanks
    – Manoj

    Anyone else notice that FAYT (Find As You Type) is broken in the 20041014 builds? When you search and then press enter on linked text it instead takes you to the next result instead of following the link.

    PS: The preview page is broken on here (the form action is wrong).

  4. DarthMDH Says:

    I expected pressing enter to take me to the next result, and was quite surprised it activated an anchor. Maybe somebody else was similarly surprised and registered a bug about it?

  5. Jesse Ruderman Says:

    If you activate FAYT by pressing Ctrl+F, the find bar is focused, and pressing Enter goes to the next result. If you activate FAYT by pressing / or ‘, the page is focused, and pressing Enter can follow a link.

  6. Adrian Yee Says:

    If that’s the case Jesse, then since the 20041014 builds, pressing / (but not ‘) to start FAYT sends focus to the find bar instead of keeping it on the page like pressing ‘ does. Anyone else confirm this?
