139411 - Incorrect menu item/submenu handling of mouse clicks

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 130855

(Core :: XUL, defect)

Description

[David Cuthbert]

If a menu item contains a submenu -- for example, the View / Text Zoom menu item
-- it does not respond correctly if the menu item is clicked to reveal the
submenu.  It responds correctly if the pointer hovers over the menu item.

What I'm doing and what I'm seeing:
1. In the browser, click on the View menubar item.
2. The view menu (Show/Hide, a separator, Stop, Reload, separator, etc.) appears.
3. Move the pointer down to Text Zoom.
4. Click on Text Zoom.
5. The submenu may or may not appear.
6. The browser window zooms to 75% width.


If step 4 is omitted, then the submenu appears as expected, and the items there
can be picked as normal.


This also happens with other menus (View / Show/Hide, Tools / Form Manager, etc.).

For some reason, bugzilla isn't capturing the version.  This is 1.0rc1.

Weird. Confirmed on Linux, but does not occur on win32. Only some submenus as 
noted, although it's not obvious what the common thing is.
