Search-Replace bug?

[John Waalkes]

I was doing a search-replace on a tilde character (replacing "~" with " ~"), and the search-replace function in FF would get stuck on the first one it found. It would keep adding a space character in front of the tilde, but then advance to the same tilde character for the next s-r action. Hitting "Find Next" would advance to the next occurrence with no problem though.

So each time I hit Replace I got an extra " " character in front of the tilde.

e.g.:

"~"
" ~"
"  ~"
"   ~"
... and so on.


Thanks

Yes, you are exactly right. I'll check into this. Seems to happen when doing the search/replace on single character strings. Multiple character strings seem to work okay. Weird.

This bug is now fixed and will be in the 3.08 update.
