156119 - URL edit box locks if a popup is recieved while editing

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: Location Bar, defect)

Description

[Jerry Winchel]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.9) Gecko/20020408
BuildID:    2002040813

I have my home page set to altavista.com.  If I do not wait for the popup that
loads on the first load of the site to start editing a URL the URL edit box will
lock and be uneditable until the browser is re-run.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Load http://www.altavista.com using a 56k or slower connection
2.Immediately try to edit a URL to any other
3.If you are editing when the popup arrives and the focus changes the edit
window will lock.

Actual Results:  The URL edit box is locked

Expected Results:  Allowed further editing.  Most other browsers loose changes
in the URL box if editing during focus change.

A workaround is simply to close the affected window and open another instance.

Can you still reproduce with a current mozilla build ? altavista has no popups
(yes I enabled
the ability).

No response from the reporter. Jerry, if you can reproduce this with a current
copy of mozilla, please feel free to reopen the report.
