From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC; en-US; rv:0.9.5+) Gecko/20011109 BuildID: 2001110908 On Mac OS, disabled items in menus do not highlight when you move the mouse over them. In Mozilla, disabled items do highlight in contextual menus. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Right-click (control-click) on a Web page 2. Move the mouse over a disabled item Actual Results: The item highlights Expected Results: The item should not highlight This is a rehash of Bug 59797. This is Mac-only, since disabled menu items do normally highlight on Win32 and Linux. This bug only applies to contextual menus, since normal menus use the system menubar, and thus the system highlighting behavior. Bug 59797 mentioned a hack to access menus from the keyboard. In that situation, disabled menu items should be skipped, not highlighted. I've seen hacks for the Mac OS to allow keyboard access to the menubar, and disabled items are skipped.

(Let's leave the final point, about keyboard nav of disabled items on Mac as a separate issue). Currently, in the Mac Classic skin, disabled menu items do not highlight. However, they do highlight in the Modern skin on Mac (and win32 and linux which also use this same skin). Turning it off is like so: http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/themes/classic/global/mac/menu.css#72 but I don't know to what degree we are doing platform tweaks in the Modern skin. (This is probably more matter for UE than toolkit, but ...)

ohhhh, gotcha. That actually crossed my mind, and I was gonna test it with the Classic skin and forgot. Whoops. It's late, and I'm tired. As far as I'm aware, Modern is platform-independent, which is why form elements (buttons and such) are so damned ugly (a striking contrast from the smooth elegant look of the rest of the skin). There could be a few platform tweaks, but I'd think if there were any, they'd at least fix the form buttons.
