Details

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows 2002 Government Server Edition; en-US) Gecko/2002071308 BuildID: 2002071308 Being a power-user and a fast clicker, I found this error annoying and perculiar. It seems that NO component of mozilla is able to be run during the first two seconds of quicklaunch reloading. Also, the right-click menu is auto-closed if you right-click the system tray icon within 2 seconds. If I wait till three seconds elapses, mozilla performs as normal, however this 2 second "blackhole" period might be symptom of more serious problems (hopefully not) in quicklaunch. I think it should get some looking into. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Make a shortcut on the desktop (or someplace right in your face) to mozilla. 2. Open a navigator window (or for that matter mail/news or composer) 3. There should only be 1 open mozilla window, and the quicklaunch icon should be resting peacefully on the system tray. 4. Close the navigator window. 5. Quicktime dissappears, then reappears... 6. Immediately double-click the mozilla shortcut (doesn't matter if its a navigator or mail/news or whatever shortcut). 7. Mozilla does not open...the request was ignored. Actual Results: Nothing. Mozilla didn't play fair... Expected Results: Mail/news, composer, whatever opens (depending on what component the shortcut specifies). If you wait 5 seconds then execute a shortcut, everthing goes well...I have isolated it to a 2 second window. It seems quicklaunch is opening/closing threads or processes, because if you right click quicklaunch during this period, you'll see a "Navigator, Mail News, Composer, address book, disable quicklaunch" menu come up. However, this menu is closed within a very short period of time, which typically happens when an application opens/closes...its hard to describe the typical circumstances for when this happens in other applications, but it does happen...for example, try rightclicking on of your applications on the toolbar (say mozilla) then hit the Windows key (if you've got an extended keyboard). The start menu pops up and cancels the right-click context menu...this is what's happening at the end of this blackhole period, however the process/thread that's causing this problem is invisible (I don't see it)...so it's not obvious like the start menu example...
most likely related to: bug 146340 - quick launch icon disappears for a second after closing last window bug 151532 - Delay system-tray icon until it is ready to accept mouse-clicks I would suggest either (1) opening a new bug, or (2) focussing this bug on the "double-click mozilla shortcut is ignored" Any preference from law or gbush on how this should be handled? marking as "NEW" for now
