Pressing CTRL+F the search menù doesn't close

[Seritti Vincenzo]

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

The problem is simple.
If i press CTRL+F, the search menù opens.
but if i press again CTRL+F for closing the menù, it doesn't work.

I have firefox 3 rc1 working on Ubuntu Hardy (8.04). In the older versions, i remember the function worked.

Really? I am not aware of such a feature. Anyone else can confirm that
it worked before?

At least in FF2, that was not the behaviour. I don't remember FF1.5. Ctrl+F has always, from what I recall, jumped text input to the search box and highlighted whatever text is already in it.
