Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 132782

'right menu' erroneously displays with HTML form drop down menus.

I click an HTML form drop down menu (and let up on the mouse). I then mouse over
to an option and click and hold the mouse down on that option. Most of the times
the 'right menu' will erroneously pop up randomnly throughout the page. It won't
go away untill I click on something.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. click on an HTML form drop down menu and let up on the mouse. 
2. Then point at one of the options
3. click and hold the mouse over that option.  

Actual Results:  most of the times the 'right menu' will erroneously appear

you usually have to select something from the menu for it to go away.

Expected Results:  I feel that there should not be a 'right menu' on drop down
menus. If there is, it should appear right next to the mouse and go away when I
click away from it.

I'm using a G3 blue and white machine with OS 10.1.5 with a puck mouse.

There is already a bug on the fact that <option> elements have context menus....
