Enter Key Doesn't Submit Message in ChatGPT Side Panel

pyroman136 — Sun, 04 May 2025 18:37:05 GMT

I've noticed that when using the new Firefox side panel to access ChatGPT, pressing the Enter key does not submit the message as expected. I have to manually click the "Submit" button with my mouse every time.

In contrast, when using ChatGPT in a regular tab, pressing Enter submits messages correctly. This suggests the side panel is not forwarding or handling the keyboard event properly.

I’d love to see this addressed in a future update, as the side panel is otherwise a great feature.

I have this problem too, even without the sidebar. In a regular tab, Enter stops working when I zoom in too much. When I zoom out it the resumes the correct behavior

Duplicate of https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/ai-integration-doesnt-allow-enter-to-send-input/m-p/93483. Also tracking as a bug in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1907682.

This is the behaviour of chatgpt in a small viewport, not an issue with Firefox per se.
