133987 - named anchor gets a:active style when clicked

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 83031

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[TT]

Go to the URL listed.  You'll see a bunch of terms, in yellow text, with
paragraphs that describe each terms.  The paragraphs use white text, with the
links in blue.  If you hold the mouse point over some text _before_ a link, and
then press and hold the mouse button, the text will change from white to blue
(i.e. match the color of the link).  This only happens to the text before the
link.  The text after the link stays white.

Specifically, scroll down to section labelled "C,C++".  The paragraph starts
with this text: "Every DreamHost plan comes with shell users, and so in turn
comes with", where the text "shell users" is a link.  If you click on the text
that reads "Every DreamHost plan comes with", that text will turn blue as long
as you hold down the mouse button.  However, the text ", and so in turn comes
with" stays white!  This doesn't happen with any other text in that paragraph,
but it doesn happen in every paragraph that has a link in it.

This bug was fairly easy to duplicate, although I couldn't get it to happen in
front of every link but it would happen more often than not.

Attachment: minimal test case

A minimal test case which demonstrates this behavior.

Since I don't understand style sheets very well, i don't know if this is
expected or unexpected behavior.
