How do I prevent Firefox from shifting my typing from the search field to the address bar?

The topic says it all. How do I prevent Firefox from shifting my typing from the search field to the address bar?

I try to type a search into the field on my homepage but the cursor gets shunted up to the address bar and I can't find a setting turn it off. I would prefer my typing to stay where I place the cursor with a click rather than being shunted off somewhere else on the screen.

Thanks. And with the number of times I've found this question posted all over the internet while searching for the most current solution ... Why is this not just a toggleable feature by now?

Hilfreich?
