174609 - Combo boxes in side bar do not work correctly.

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: Sidebar, defect)

Description

[John McKerrell]

Hi, I'm developing a sidebar that speeds navigation of a website by providing a
combobox containing links. When a section of the site is selected in the combo
box, javascript makes the content window go to the correct section of the site.
On first opening this sidebar, if I click on the combo box, the dropdown part
does not appear. The only way to use it at this point is to press up or down,
then tab. If I reload the tab though, this problem goes away.
I've also noticed, that sometimes the bottom part of the tab is actually visible
very low on the screen, so that only one option is visible and it's pretty
unusuable.
Quite low priority as it's easy enough to get around but I thought you might
like to know.
FYI I've had the problem in:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020918
I can provide the URL for the sidebar if required but I'd rather not post it on
a public forum. I'll also sort out a screenshot of the dropdown appearing at the
bottom of the screen if you want, and if I can reproduce it.
