131467 - context menu appears if webpage has long load time

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 117589

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, defect)

Description

[Matthias Falland]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:0.9.9+)
Gecko/20020316
BuildID:    2002031603

The context menu appears after short left click on a link every time the web
page needs long time to finish loading (dep. on my connection). Often I even
cannot close it after the webpage is loaded with a click outside the menu. So I
have to choose a menu item to close it (I took then select all). Its also in 0.9.9.
For me it looks like the browser thinks I do a long click (on mac a way to get
context menu) but in fact its a very short click. Sometimes it helps if I move
the the mouse around while the page is loading.
That also happens on the personal toolbar folder and even in the location field.
I think it happens on 75% of all link clicks per day.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on a link with a slow server response, e.g. on www.macnews.de on a
talkback (speaking face under an article) image.


Actual Results:  The context menu appears

Expected Results:  Just load the page
