Bug #568283 adds a checkbox to the Advanced->Keyboard Navigation. As suggested by bug #568283 comment #1, FAYT is to be moved to its own panel under Advanced.

Picking it up for a spin.

Comment on attachment 501979 [details] [diff] [review] Moved FAYT to its own panel under Advanced. (v1) As suggested in bug 568283 we need somewhere for accessibility.browsewithcaret to live, so if it is in this pref panel it can not be called Find As You Type, but it probably makes more sense under Keyboard Navigation (as it is to do with using cursor keys I believe). Anyway if we stick with Find As You Type then I would prefer a different filename to pref-fayt and for the entities / ids, perhaps pref-findasyoutype and findAsYouType? >+++ b/suite/common/pref/pref-fayt.js >+ * Contributor(s): Edmund Wong <ewong@pw-wspx.org> Nit: the name of the contributor usually goes on the line after, so "* Contributor(s)" on one line and the name(s) on the following line(s). >+function Startup() >+{ >+ var prefAutostart = document.getElementById("accessibility.typeaheadfind.autostart"); >+ SetLinksOnlyEnabled(prefAutostart.value); >+} >+ >+function SetLinksOnlyEnabled(aEnable) >+{ >+ EnableElementById("findAsYouTypeAutoWhat", aEnable, false); >+} I presume these were copied out of pref-keynav.js but there are no changes to that file in this diff! >+++ b/suite/common/pref/pref-fayt.xul >+ - Contributor(s): Edmund Wong <ewong@pw-wspx.org> Nit: see above >+ <preference id="accessibility.tabfocus" >+ name="accessibility.tabfocus" >+ type="int"/> A copy-and-paste mistake?

Actually, my intention was for this bug to move the FAYT options into its own panel under Advanced, and then for that bug 568283, put the accessibiility.browsewithcaret to be in the Keyboard Navigation panel along with the other Keyboard Navigation options.

Yes, that is what I said too.

how about pref-typeaheadfind.{xul|js} ?

(In reply to comment #11) > Can you point out what's wrong with the url? It's not the same as the actual one. Works on Windows but not on filesystems that take case into account (Unix/Linux, probably also Mac).

As Jens says, case sensitivity...

Comment on attachment 510016 [details] [diff] [review] Moved FAYT to its own panel under Advanced. (v4) My only thought now is should we be copying the pref-keynav.* files to pref-findasyoutype.* files rather than creating new ones so as to keep history

Using copy instead...

> rather than creating new ones so as to keep history Uh, what history? Other than the almost total rewrite during the move to the new <prefwindow>.

Comment on attachment 510365 [details] [diff] [review] Copy PAYT patch v5 [Checked in: Comment 18] http://hg.mozilla.org/comm-central/rev/d7006d9c3c71

I presume you're doing the browsewithcaret patch next (bug 568283) and then you could combine the help patches into one (bug 623901 and bug 623903)?

Comment on attachment 510365 [details] [diff] [review] Copy PAYT patch v5 [Checked in: Comment 18] function Startup() { if (/Mac/.test(navigator.platform)) document.getElementById("tabNavigationPrefs").setAttribute("hidden", true); - - var prefAutostart = document.getElementById("accessibility.typeaheadfind.autostart"); - SetLinksOnlyEnabled(prefAutostart.value); } Note that this regressed Mac since we now show a blank panel. That is, please land the patch in bug 568283 asap ;-)
