Overview Description: Highlight the text in the URL entry area does not always reverse video it. If you double click on the text and then hit backspace, the text does get erased, but there is no indication/highlight (i.e., reversal of black and white) to tell what you have highlighted. This problem appears to occur on a 8-bit display but not on a 24-bit display. Steps to Reproduce: 1) Highlight any text at the URL input field in Mozilla Actual Results: No indication of what's being highlighted. Expected Results: The text being highlighted should have the video reversed to indicate the highlight. Reproducibility: Reproducible on a 8-bit display machine but not on a 24-bit display machine. Build Date & Platform Bug Found: Downloaded Beta1 source, and built it with gnu compiler with the following options in the .mozconfig file ac_add_options --disable-tests, ac_add_options --disable-debug ac_add_options --enable-optimize Additional Builds and Platforms Tested On: None. It should be a Sun/Solaris specific problem.

*SPAM*: Changing the QA contact of all open/resolved Selection bugs from elig@netscape.com to BlakeR1234@aol.com. After the many great years of service Eli has given to Mozilla, it's time for him to move on; he has accepted a position at Eazel. We'll be sad to see him go, and I'll do my best to fill his spot...
