User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9b4pre) Gecko/2008020613 Minefield/3.0b4pre Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9b4pre) Gecko/2008020613 Minefield/3.0b4pre I suggest using the form: [icon 1] [search query] [icon 2] for all search entries. Note that there shouldn't be any "Clear search" button, nor "search" label before the text entry; only the three elements mentioned before. * Icon 1 would be the icon which represents what is being searched. For example, bookmarks sidebar search would show the bookmarks icon (the used in Boomarks > Show All Bookmarks...). * Search query would be: Search [what is being searched]... For example, for bookmarks sidebar search would show: "Search bookmarks...". The entry would remove that text when new text is written, and would fill the text box again with it when the user clears the text box. * Icon 2 would be a unique icon among all entries, a common magnifying glass. This are all the searches I've found: * Bookmarks sidebar search * History sidebar search * Find search * Quick find search * Applications search * Cookies search * Extension search * Help search * Library search * Remembered passwords search The Web search entry (the one usually present at the right of the location bar) should not follow this rules. Reproducible: Always

Entry text should be 50% of the foreground color and 50% of the background color when showing the: "Search [what]...", and 100% foreground color when the user writes the entry. Pressing <Enter> and clicking the search button should start the search.
Typo: Pressing <Enter> or clicking the search button would start the search. The search text foreground text color would be 50% foreground color and 50% background color when user clears its entry.
I'm setting this as a duplicate of bug 388811, since they both hope to achieve the same thing (although the UI details here are a little different).
