Firefox highlight search quirk & Gmail - A Cautionary Tale

Posted by jeff Wed, 05 Mar 2008 04:56:00 GMT

Imagine you're writing someone about a possible job using your fancy Google Apps for Your Domain gmail app. As you're proofreading you notice you've inconsistently capitalized a specific proper noun. Oops. No worries, right, this is what Ctrl-F is for... But if you click highlight when searching your email text, make sure you unclick it before sending... otherwise you end up actually sending an email with highlighted text and, undoubtedly, looking foolish.

Good game, firefox, you're too helpful.
