Firefox automatically moving the cursor to the address bar instead of the search bar when trying to search, very frustrating.

Can you elaborate this question? You want it to automatically move the cursor to the search bar when trying to search?

It's that the default placement of the cursor is the address bar not in the google search box in middle of page.

I am having same issue. It's so annoying. First Google was added to address bar again which I was able to fix in about:config (AGAIN) but now the cursor won't go back to google search box on page on new tabs... NOT EVERYONE WANTS TO SEARCH IN THE ADDRESS BAR... Online says fix is in about:config handoff but that is False as it should be. Nor is the extension working for me... If FIREFOX is saying these are not guaranteed fixes in about:config then fine but you need to do an actual FIX then... or someone please tell me what I'm missing...
