           Summary: REGRESSION (NativeTextField): first click in form field
                    on weather.com leaves focus but no caret
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 420+ (nightly)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: NeedsReduction, Regression, NativeTextField
          Severity: blocker
          Priority: P1
         Component: HTML Forms
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at opendarwin.org
        ReportedBy: sullivan at apple.com


This bug is also in Radar as <rdar://4498729>

To reproduce:

1. visit http://www.weather.com
2. click in the field nearest the top of the page that contains the text "Enter
city or US zip" (note that sometimes there's a 2nd field with this same text in
it lower on the page in a Flash plug-in; I'm talking about the normal form
field higher on the page -- see attached picture)

This click is supposed to erase the placeholder text, focus the field, and
cause a caret to start blinking. The first two things happen, but there's no
caret, and typing does not cause text to appear. A 2nd click in the field will
set things right again.
