auto complete on an input field
the auto complete generated by firefox is not working. when firefox shows the suggestions I just focus on one of them using down arrow key and press enter and submit the starting 2-3 words to the server which means incomplete text goes to server and incorrect result get generated.
for e.g i want to type "vasant kunj" when i type "va" firefox shows the all text starting with "va" as autocomplete/suggestions I focus on "vasant kunj" and press enter, it shows the "vasant kunj" in the input field but the request to the server goes as only "va" and request goes as I press enter only once while it should go to the server when I press the enter second time, because at first time it should enter the text in the input field from suggestions generated by the firefox based on previous values entered

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems and Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
Hey, cor-rel thanks for your time but that didn't work for me.if you some programming solutions or any other please let me know.

type "vasant kunj" manually in the "where" box 3-4 times so that firefox could generate auto suggestions for you then type "va" firefox will show you the auto complete suggestions. After that focus on auto complete and press "enter" then analyze the result with auto complete and without auto complete i .e manual typing
