I just noticed that when I start writing in the Firefox URL bar there is a blinking straight bar that remains at the start. And if I click of somewhere else and then start writing again, the bar remains blinking at the start of the new text. I also don't have the straight line you get when moving left or right in the text using the arrow keys.

I couldn't capture the bar with a screen shot so I have edited the images to where the bar is when beginning typing, and then after I have clicked of the text bar and then entered it again and typed some more.

Thanks for any help I can get.

What Firefox locale are you using and what is your Windows locale? Do you possibly have a RTL (right-to-left) locale in case this is a special BIDI cursor?

Perhaps you have turned on Caret Browsing?.

You can either hit the F7 key or go to Settings > General > Browsing and uncheck Always use the cursor keys to navigate within pages

I did try to activate and deactivate Caret browsing before but the line still remains.

I'm using English (United States) so it should be the cause of the line. I just tried changing from (right-to-left) and back to (left-to-right) using the ctrl+shift+x command and it seems to have fixed the issue. But I don't believe I was using RTL before because the text was still displaying left to right. But as it seems to have been solved I will mark the issue as solved.

Thanks for the help.
