    Yes, I experience the same thing in Opera 11.5 having turned off Google Instant. The cursor jumps to the end having successfully typed a 'z' (or another letter) in the middle. This only happens immediately after having done a search, when you type the first character. Subsequent characters are OK. I have Opera set with default settings AFAIK. Where is "Autocomplete" settings? I have experimented with "Enable single-key shortcuts" (is this what you are referring to?) but it made no difference whether it was enabled or not.

    @Tom: Yes, same for me in Google Chrome as well. Regardless of what state the autocompletion is in. I did reinstall Chrome 12 a few weeks ago as it happens (now on Chrome 13) and have it set to default as far as I'm aware.

    So it doesn't happen with javascript off. I suspect that this is a bug.

    Reproducible in Lion 10.7.2 beta Safari Version 5.1 (7534.48.3) and Chrome 15.0.861.0 canary and Firefox 6.0 release with Google Instant off. Probably a Google bug and off topic on SuperUser.
