135015 - "Minimize" doesn't minimize window

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 120155

(Core :: XUL, defect)

Description

[Paul S R Chisholm]

From Bugzilla Helper:

Minimizing a maximized window has the same result as "restoring" it (to a normal
sized window).

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a maximized (not full screen) browser window.
2. Open the URL in question (I did it from an imported IE bookmark).
3. Minimize the window, either by clicking the [_] button in the top right (next
to the [[]] and [X] buttons); or by right-clicking the taskbar button and then
clicking Minimize; or by clicking on the Mozilla icon in the top left of the
window and clicking Minimize.

Actual Results:  Same as clicking restore.

Expected Results:  The window is minimized; it doesn't appear except as an entry
in the task bar.

This was 100% reproducable (with one or two other windows open), until I opened
this window; then *this* window started exhibiting this behavior; then (after a
"Show Desktop" to minimize all windows) it stopped happening.

I presume this has something to do with some nasty Javascript on the Yahoo News
page (which tries to launch a pop-up on close, at least in IE if Javascript is
enabled).
