The message is pretty clear. Check your preference settings.

This might be you and and it might be a Firebird defect. It works the way
you expect in Mozilla. For now, try Tab and Enter and see if that
selected the item you want.

Because that's what Firebird selected.

Probably releated to the content of your location bar history. Clear it.

There's a Help menu. Use it's search feature. Try searching for location
bar since yo are having problems with it. Since Firebird is not GA, don't
expect everything to work. Since Firebird is not Netscape, don't expect
it to work exactly the same way.

You'll get help here, such as it is. :-) Of course, since the
programmers writing the OS/2 code along with several of the more advanced
users monitor <news://netscape.public.mozilla.os2> that's another good
place to go for OS/2 specific issues.
