72095 - when closing browser window, frame disappears, flashes and then finally disappear

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 145561

(Core :: XUL, defect)

Description

[achimha]

This was introduced some weeks ago. I'm not sure whether this is a dup, could
not find anything.
Happens on OS/2 and on Win98 (confirmed by another user) so seems to be an
XP bug.

You can see this by closing a browser frame window. It will hide and then an
empty frame with with titlebar will reappear with the same size/position which
then completely disappears.

I occasionally see something like this on linux, often when closing a popup.
Another window of the same size pops up, and as soon as I place it disappears
along with the popup.

This is OS/2 specific, reassigning to me.

Attachment: don't show the window on each WM_FOCUSCHANGE, basically back out 1.37 change

the patch has the problem of breaking 56770 again. We need WM_ACTIVATE as
well to get proper keyboard input focus. However, the original fix has the
problems mentioned. We might have to introduce some mIsBeingClosed flag to
nsWindow and set that in the XP code that does the window->Show(PR_FALSE)
before closing it. Any other suggestions?

This will be fixed by the focus checkin in 145561
