I'm not sure what triggers this. Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIDOMNSHTMLInputElement.setSelectionRange]" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://global/content/bindings/textbox.xml :: onxblmousedown :: line 184" data: no] This regressed sometime during the last 9 hours before I reported this bug. could bug #216434 be the cause? Reproducible: Always

browser.urlbar.autoFill is set to true. This could also be the cause.

I see this JS exception thrown on Mac trunk: Error: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80520015 (NS_ERROR_FILE_ACCESS_DENIED) [mozIStorageStatementWrapper.step]" nsresult: "0x80520015 (NS_ERROR_FILE_ACCESS_DENIED)" location: "JS frame :: file:///Applications/Minefield.app/Contents/MacOS/components/nsSearchService.js :: epsGetAttr :: line 2891" data: no] Source File: file:///Applications/Minefield.app/Contents/MacOS/components/nsSearchService.js Line: 2891

Seth, any clues? You fixed something similar over in bug 393244. I'm still trying to find a reproducible testcase, though, for this one (maybe it's a time/size-of-history/places file issue). Just before this failure, I see an alert dialog pop up on Mac that claims I've run out of disk capacity; I'm sure that's related, though I can't remember if it was the OS or Firefox that popped it up. Anyways, confirming this bug on Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.9a9pre) Gecko/2007093004 Minefield/3.0a9pre (I actually think my exceptions might be more relevant; I don't really know how setting a selection range would be related to breaking _input_ of characters. In case I'm wrong, I'll happily file a new bug for the Mac issue I'm noting.)

Some relation with bug 397342 ? Yesterday I noticed that the caret was missing in the filter input field of about:config, also when I clicked in it. It was a new profile where I was testing something else. I could not reproduce this anymore after a restart. Sorry for this comment if this issue is unrelated.

I found a way to reproduce it here. After a while of browsing, if I right click on the 'navigation toolbar' and click 'Customize', this get's broken. After that I'm no longer able to manually type in urls in the location bar.

This sounds like a duplicate of bug 398346 (comment 5 certainly is).

marked as duplicate of 398346. Please reopen if this isn't correct.

Make sense; I've been testing customizing search lately, so that's why I hit this. Verified dup.
