Details

[Affected versions]:
- Firefox 63.0.1
- Firefox 64.0b6
- Nightly 65.0a1

[Affected platforms]:
- macOS 10.13
- Ubuntu 16.04 x64
- Windows 10 x64


[Steps to reproduce]:
1. Activate Find Toolbar (Ctrl+F)
2. Search for a word that can't be found on the page (eg. sdasdasj ).
3. Observe the buttons on the right side of the text field.

[Expected result]:
- The buttons are not activated, because there is no need to  navigate between the search results if the word is not found.

[Actual result]:
- The buttons are activated and clickable.


[Regression range]:
- I don't think this is a regression. I can reproduce the issue using Firefox from 2008 - 01 - 02.

Yeah, I think we only effectively disable the find navigation buttons when the input field is empty. We've had several iterations spent on the enabled/ disabled state effectively and this is the least buggy state we've ended up with - considering all the edge cases.
Thanks for filing, but I'm closing this...
