Details

Type in an url, then click on the Go button (if you have it turned on, obviously). For me, nothing happens unless you click it again. It seems like the focus isn't shifting immediately from the URL text box to the button. You have to "deselect" the text box before hitting the Go button.
I swear this is a dupe..
There was a bug reported concerning a link on a Yahoo page when clicking the GO button but it was reported that the page was at fault. What I see here is the same as what the reporter sees. When entering a URL and the URL is not in the history drop-down list the blank list remains in view. Hitting the GO button does nothing until the drop down list closes. Hitting the GO button again resumes normal access to the URL.

Ever confirmed: true
Yeah, I did a search for all bugs concerning the word GO, and saw several web search pages relating to Go buttons, but they're all Go as in "Begin Search". This is the URLbar Go button. Jay, correct. The URLbar drop down will be present, and the first click clears that, THEN clicking the GO button will work.
so the current thinking says this is not really a bug - see jrgm's comments in bug 82494. Nonetheless, the matter is being addressed in bug 66834. Marking dupe *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 66834 ***
