		<description>Thankyouthankyouthankyou! I've researched The Google seemingly for hours to find this answer and was becoming convinced it was an FF3 oversight that couldn't be rectified. Great job and much appreciated!</description>

		<description>Thanks a lot Johan! Just rephrasing this, hoping to get Google to notice it, because for me it just produced a lot of bad hits.

Firefox 3 quick find can be repaired with
/* Add Next/Previous Buttons to Quick Find Bar */
.findbar-container&#62;* {display: -moz-box !important;}
in the userChrome.css . This repairs quick find in Firefox 3.</description>

		<description>Had exactly the same problem as you Hans. Found this in another blog comment. Works in FF3 for me.
"Firefox 3 needs

/* Add Next/Previous Buttons to Quick Find Bar */
.findbar-container&#62;* {display: -moz-box !important;}

instead."</description>

		<description>This works great....the only thing that has annoyed me about ff2 is now out of the way! Just remember to use the folder in documents and settings and NOT in program files (just so you dont make the same mistakes as I did)

I added the line at the very end of the examplefile and renamed it....thats it!</description>

		<description>Actually, a good first step would be for ff developers to REMOVE this "feature" until it actually works.  ff has not been good with "focus" for several releases.  And no, it is not just Mac users.  I have had the notorious / and ' problem on my HP pavilion laptop running XP for years.  NEVER has the Tools/Options/Advanced button turned off the "feature".

I did find a "secret" command which disables it, but it came back after the next major update and I lost the command.  ARGH!

Given that -F does the job, this running battle strikes me as similar to the religious wars between vi and EMACS users.  (vi is an ancient unix editor with "modes" where clear keystrokes were sometimes commands based on which mode you were in.  Emacs, on the other hand used the ESC, CTRL, and ALT keys to  send commands to the editor.)  I have always been an adherent to Emacs and the idea of a keystroke operating differently based on "focus" is not really all that appealing even if it did work.

I also have problems using copy and paste with firefox and I am suspicious that this is due to the same problem with focus.

My only add-ons are TabMixPlus and Firebug.</description>

		<description>Hi everyone,

I saw the link to this post in feedback on support.mozilla.com, thanks for letting us know this exists, and of course we're sorry this issue is still occurring.

A few things to start with: there have been several different causes for this issue and *most* of them have been fixed. This has been a very tricky issue to diagnose though, as the devs aren't hitting it, and no one who does see this issue has yet been able to provide the clue needed to track this down.

It seems that the only reports left of this issue are from Mac users, or at least the majority anyway.  What we need to diagnose this issue are people to get together who are seeing this issue to compare when it's happening, and what sort of systems it's happening on. Are you all using the same version of OSX? Do you all have the same extensions, or have some 3rd party software in common?

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=320465 is a tracking bug for all bugs filed to do with the quickfind bar coming up when it's unwanted. If you look at the depends on section, any numbers that don't have a line through them are still open. Note, it looks like a lot, but we make a practice of not resolving bugs fixed if the original reporter doesn't come back and tell us it works for them. It looks like some of those bugs should be fixed, and some of them are duplicates of each other.

If you want to help, you could try to find a bug that looks like it's *exactly* what's happening to you, including your operating system and when it's happening, and see if you can come up with any new information to add.

Please feel free to use a forum thread at http://support.mozilla.com/forum to coordinate with other users who are having this problem until you can find something in common. In fact that would be the preferable first step.

Next step would be to back up your profile and install a Firefox 3 beta from http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Firefox_3_for_developers . Let us know if the problem still happens to you using those builds.  If not, that will be a clue as well.</description>

		<description>Percy,
Thank you for your comment. I am confused just a bit by your terminology. "Focus" on a text box? Do you mean have the cursor IN the text box? Or, do you mean stare at the text box and use the power of my mind to will the frickin' apostrophe button to work in a sentence rather than bring up Quickfind? Because that's about what it's coming to.

:) Ok, ok...My apologies. You are trying to help and I'm being flippant. But to make it perfectly clear, I DO have my cursor in a text field, such as this one (or for instance on MySpace or Google search) and the apostrophe will NOT work 99% of the time. There is that 1% miracle occurance when it does and it's totally random. And, again, I DO have the "find text" option OFF in my preferences.

So, I will take your advice and contact Mozilla support and perhaps rather than re-explain the problem, I'll simply direct them to this thread. I don't think the point could be made any clearer.</description>

		<description>Sunny and Krissindor, you have to focus on a text box for a slash or apostrophe to appear, otherwise it will prompt QuickFind since there's no purpose for entering any of these characters while not on a text box or textarea.

If QuickFind appears even when on a text box then you should contact Firefox support (knowledge base, forums and now even live chat). It could be a conflict with an extension: http://support.mozilla.com</description>

		<description>This is the most outrageously annoying feature I've encountered on computers since 1981. HOW THE DEVIL DO I GET RID OF IT FOREVER AND EVER, AMEN??? Every time I want to add a forward slash, the danged thing pops up. I hit escape, it disappears, and the instant I try to enter a forward slash, there it is  again. I truly despise it. HELP! HOW DO I KILL IT?

Thanks.</description>

		<description>This is laughable. I can't believe people are still posting about this yet FF does absolutely nothing about it. For the record, I have turned off my quick find option in preferences, but it still will "Find" stuff when I try to type contractions, notoriously when I'm in the google search text box and occasionally in text fields such as this one. Obviously it's working now, but it sometimes won't and I'll have to go back to writing like a podunk.

The other strange thing is that when it occurs when I'm in a google search text field, I'll try three or four times to type with an apostrophe because all of a sudden it lets do it.

MOZILLA/FF: WAKE THE HELL UP!!! NO ONE LIKES YOUR "FIND" "Quick key" It's LAME and USELESS! What? You think everyone on the internet is 1) illiterate and doesn't know what contractions are or 2) so stiffly and properly articulate that they refuse to use them?? NO! We are a world of contractions! You've bungled it! AAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!  * runs off screaming, flailing arms *</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is laughable. I can&#8217;t believe people are still posting about this yet FF does absolutely nothing about it. For the record, I have turned off my quick find option in preferences, but it still will &#8220;Find&#8221; stuff when I try to type contractions, notoriously when I&#8217;m in the google search text box and occasionally in text fields such as this one. Obviously it&#8217;s working now, but it sometimes won&#8217;t and I&#8217;ll have to go back to writing like a podunk.</p>

		<description>I find quick find to be incredibly annoying. I just dont get why everytime I type .. well I cant even type them or itll go to it... I just dont get it. why in the hell would that make any sense to have that be an auto feature.</description>

		<description>Tom: In a later post on this thread I noted that the link I posted actually addresses a different issue.

As Jim said, it's all in the Help anyway.

		<description>The Help folder of Firefox tells you how to turn it off, but I'll tell you anyway.
1. Go to Tools-&#62;Options
2. Go to Advanced
3. Stay on the General tab
4. Click on the checked "Search For Text While I'm Typing" box.
Hope that helps!

		<description>OK, how do I turn OFF "quick find" in Firefox 2.0??  It's driving me batty.  Specifically when I try to type a posting in Google Notes and type a ', the darned quick find becomes active.

Torben posted a link he says tells how to turn it off, but all I find under that link is a bunch of posts from people just as frustrated as I am with it!  --  Cheers, Tom</description>
