From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.9+) Gecko/20020313
BuildID:    2002031321

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the bookmarks menu (from the menu bar or personal toolbar)
2. Click a folder on the menu (clicking fast before the submenu is shown or
double-clicking may help reproduce the problem)

Actual Results:  Clicking on the folder causes an item on the submenu to
activate, i.e. the browser goes to a page on the submenu, or a sub-submenu pops
open in the distance

Expected Results:  Nothing, or open submenu if not already visible

Tested on linux:
0.9.9: no bug

Does happen also with a fresh profile, with the default bookmarks. Have to be
pretty fast though.

Appeared between 2002-03-09-10-trunk and 2002-03-09-21-trunk

I am seeing the same problem, but I believe it is more general than described
here.  I see the bookmark folder problem, but I also see it with the View menu.
 If I click on the Text Zoom folder, 50% scaling is enacted.  Happens with both
Classic and Modern themes and a new profile.

To reproduce:
1) Open the View menu.
2) Move the mouse over the Text Zoom folder.  Zoom should be at 100% initially.
3) Allow the sub menu to popup on timeout.
4) Click on the Text Zoom folder itself (_not_ one of the items on the popup menu).
5) Text is now really small because the Zoom is now 50%.

Tested with Mozilla trunk 2002-03-14-08 on Linux with a new profile.

This is a really ugly regression for Linux users.  Could someone please nominate
this for mozilla1.0 and also up its Severity?
blizzard, you're being fingered by blake, at least.  Seems plausible, can you
take a quick look?  Or tell us and maybe bryner can help, based on the bonsai
link here and your checkin recorded in it.

Yeah, I'll bet this is my bug.  I've been thinking about ways to fix it.  I
thought I had, but I guess not.  It's a bad interaction of grabs, event rewrites
and other such nonsense.  Weeeee!

Yeah Stephen I see this in all menus too, adjusting summary. fwiw, it doesn't
happen when activating the menu item with the enter key.
Summary: clicking on bookmark menu folder sometimes activates an item on the submenu → clicking on menuitem with submenu often activates an item on the submenu

Linux only. Win is OK.
Happens on any menu item with submenu. Not only bookmarks
*** Bug 136600 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Nice directions from 136600,
> 1.open a menu, tools for example. (release mouse button)
> 2.go to password manager, press and hold mouse button.
> 3.move the pointer up and down the parent menu.

the signals go to the submenu.

This now wfm in a new trunk cvs build, and latest trunk nightly
(2002-04-27-21-trunk). Latest branch build (2002-04-27-08-1.0.0) still bugs.
In the very build that this bug seems to be fixed, 2002-04-27-21 trunk, bug
140767 appears.  Coincidence?  I think not.
i think fix caused regression:
now, if you go to some menu (so it appears) and move mouse to another rootlevel
menuitem, new menu does not popup.

let me explain: click on `edit' menu, and move mouse to `view' menu -- edit
popup stays open, view popup doesn't appear. click on `view' menu - edit menu
closes, click again - 'view' menu opens.

This should have been fixed with the check in of bug 129591, on the trunk anyway.
Depends on: 129591
The fix has been landed on the 1.0 branch and the trunk.  Closing.
