Example: in Facebook, the search bar has a grey text "Search for people, places and things". Usually, when I click it, the cursor will blink to the search bar and the grey text disappears. But what happens to me is that when I click it, the cursor will blink to the search bar, but the grey text "Search for people, places and things" is still there... It will only disappear if I type something, but deleting the words I typed will let it reappear. I was just wondering why is this happening... Because I don't know if this is normal. Is this a new feature of Firefox? Because I recently just updated to Firefox 15.0

Yes, Firefox 15 still displays the grayed placeholder text if you click an input field.

The placeholder only disappears when you type at least one character.
