Linux trunk build 2002072404 Got to http://www.cnn.com/ scroll down until you find the "Quick Vote" (On the right, about half-way down the page) Vote. The results will pop up in a new window. Close this window by pocking "Close" from the "File" menu. Expected Results: Only the popup window should close Actual Results: The entire browser closes
For me the popup doesn't have any menu so I can't reproduce exactly, but any way, if I close the popup it just closes that, not all mozilla. (win98 2002072204)
can't see any file menu when testing a day old CVS build, Linux, either. The window is chromeless.
Clarification. It doesn't matter how I close the window, I just used file->close as an example since I was in the mood to be specific :) No matter if I do file->close, or clikc on the little x in the window itself (which does a javascript window.close()) or if I close it with my window manager, the results are always the same. Mozilla exits completely.
oooh. here is something important. I tried starting mozilla from the command line this time, and when it died it left behind the following error in my xterm: Gdk-ERROR **: BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter) serial 84 error_code 9 request_code 128 minor_code 3
worksforme with linux trunk build 20020724. The Gdk error means you won't get any talkback.

the build you had could produce that error if a page had flash in an iframe (bug 152429), which was just fixed. The popup window sometimes has this situation. marking dupe of "flash in an iframe crashes with Gdk-ERROR **: BadDrawable" please reopen if you can reproduce with a new nightly build *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 152429 ***
