I use web-based templates for formulating replies to email queries of customers. When I click on a template, pop-up windows open for entering all non-general/specific details in the template. With the installation of the new version of Firefox, what happens is that when I try to type in the pop-up window, the cursor automatically moves to the address/location bar ! This was not the case with the old firefox. How do I prevent my cursor to move automatically to the address bar ?

Hi jaideepdesai, Do you have the accessibility type in page option turned on?

I think it is http://kb.mozillazine.org/Inline_autocomplete I it is definitely one of these: browser. urlbar. See About:config entries

By default a new window should open the cursor in the search field on the page. Resetting Firefox will get you back to the default on about:support page.
