[Bug 641300] Re: Text Entry Boxes in Firefox sometimes get stuck in an endless "Select-All" making typing in them impossible

[dmcf01]

I've also had this problem, I believe, through various Ubuntu Builds. I'm now trialling 10.10 and experiencing the same issue. I had actually stopped using Ubuntu as my main OS due to the buggyness of Firefox / Java. I've noticed FF on previous versions of Ubuntu had difficulty handling interactive text boxes, drop down menus scrolling etc. All the issues seem to have been resolved except for the one reported here. I'm now using FF 3.6.12 and Ubuntu 10.10 and I get it very frequently as I tend to use many websites which require a lot of typing in boxes.
 The Extensions I have installed are:
- British English Dictionary 1.19
- Dizionario Italiano 3.2
- DownThemAll! 1.1.10
- NovellMoonlight 2.3
- Ubuntu FireFox Modifications 0.9rc2
- Xmarks 3.9.2
The only add on I have in common with the above users is "Ubuntu Firefox Modifications 0.9rc2". 
I will disable "Ubuntu Firefox Modifications 0.9rc2" first and then the others one by one to see what happens and let you know.
