97511 - Double-click interval too short when opening directories in "Open File" window

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Core :: DOM: UI Events & Focus Handling, defect)

Description

[Jeff Strehlow]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.3) Gecko/20010801
BuildID:    2001080104

When I want to open a file on the browser and am choosing a sub-directory, I
have to double click VERY fast to open the directory. The maximum time interval
between the clicks should be increased or better yet, open the directory on a
single click. The button to proceed upwards in the directory tree (towards the
root) works on a single click. Proceeding toward the files should also work on a
single click.  

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Select File/Open File
2.Choose a directory in the "Open File" window by double clicking on it
3.

Actual Results:  If I don't double-click very rapidly the directory isn't selected

Expected Results:  The directory should be selected with a single click or with
a double click with a longer time interval between the clicks allowed

With 20010827 Linux, it does seem you have to click a bit faster than usual,
though it's not unbearably quick.  confirming, downgrading, -> event handling

note also bug 53485 for historical reasons

Sounds like a problem with the native Linux file picker.

I'm not able to reproduce this, and even if I was, we get double click events
from GTK... so Mozilla isn't doing anything special here.
