103971 - Context menus are not being re-drawn on pressing ESC or ALT

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 94980

(Core :: XUL, defect)

Description

[mdimitrio]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:0.9.4+) Gecko/20011005
BuildID:    2001100503

Context menus are not being re-drawn if the user cancel the menu using ESC or
ALT. Items previously selected will still appear in Blue (or color for selected
items in your OS settings).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Right click somewhere on the page, or use the keyboard shortcut, to bring the
context menu up;
2. Move your mouse pointer, or use the arrow keys, and place the pointer or
selection over the "Forward" item;
3. Press ESC to cancel the context menu;
4. Bring the context menu up again, either with right clicking or keyboard shortcut.

Actual Results:  You see? "Forward" is displayed in Blue, as if it was selected,
even though the selection isn't there.

Expected Results:  The context menu should be redrawn and go back to it's
original state.

Additional Comments: This affects only the current window. If I have two Mozilla
windows, do the steps above on window 1, ALT+TAB to the next one (window 2) and
call the context menu, it'll appear just fine. When I return to the window 1,
there's the messed context menu.

Additional Notes to the bug report: This will go away when the user moves the
mouse pointer (or keyboard arrow keys) over the items.
