Description Liangent 2010-07-22 15:54:35 UTC 
When I drag some text and drop it in the search box, it becomes gray and stays around the word 'Search'. If I try to remove the word 'Search' and click on the box, the text I dropped just now disappears.

Iceweasel 3.5.8
Comment 3 AlexSm 2010-07-22 16:17:41 UTC 
The same thing happens in FireFox 3.6.7 and IE8: label "search" prevents text drag-and-dropping. The workaround is to remove the label by inserting e.g. one space into the search field. Google Chrome works ok; Opera 10.60 doesn't seem to have this feature at all.
Comment 4 Liangent 2010-07-22 16:31:49 UTC 
This may be due to an attempt to fix bug 24096.
Comment 5 Derk-Jan Hartman 2010-07-22 16:44:37 UTC 
If only all browsers supported HTML5 yet, then this would be so much easier :D

Comment 6 Adam Miller 2010-07-22 16:49:09 UTC 
I think we had code in place to deal with drag/drop before...I'll see what I can come up with.

We use this if available, which is probably why this bug doesn't occur on Chrome.
