Firefox falsely highlighted text in form boxes?
 

Whenever I'm typing a message sometimes stuff will look like it's highlighted and its hard to get it to go away. I never know if its a false highlight or if all my text is going to disappear when I hit a key and it drives me crazy. Does this happen to anyone else and is it being fixed? This is really the only thing annoying about mozilla. Any ideas?

Yeah, I see that as well, but I never tracked it down. I'll try to remember to search later, now that I know it isn't just me.

Yeah, I get this issue once in a while.

To get it to go away I just click around and randomly highlight stuff.

Well, I found the bug, but no one has posted any explaination or workarounds.

YEah, been there....I keep clicking around and eventually it goes away. Doesn't seem to hurt anything though.
