132782 - right click in a combo box

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout: Form Controls, defect, P3)

Description

[Daniel Moldovan]

On the top of the page is a combo box. If you open it, then right click one of
the combo box items, the contextual menu opens on the left side of the page.
This is not what I would have expected. Any other page containing combo boxes
behaves the same way.

To form controls.  We should not have context menus on <option>, period.

On Windows XP, the contectmenu appears in the correct place. Though if  you
expand the combo box and then right click, the expanded will not go away, even
though you scroll.

So here's a question -- should the context menu be killed inside gecko or by the
app?  That is, can we see embeddors wanting context menus on <option> nodes?

What about context menus for listboxes?

I think this is fixed, probably by my checkin for bug 242833.
