User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:98.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/98.0
Steps to reproduce:
-
Unzip attached file and load temporary add-on into Firefox.
-
Move the mouse cursor to the action button and click on it immediately as soon as it enters the button’s boundaries WITHOUT lingering/hovering above the button.
Actual results:
The popup is not loading the page as it should. (see included image in zip file)
On the other hand, repeat step 2 but this time hover the button for a while before clicking it. Allowing for the preload to complete(?). At least until the tooltip appears. The popup should load properly.
Expected results:
IMHO the popup should be opened with some ‘loading’ animation until the response is returned and loaded into it.

Hello,
I reproduced the issue based on the provided STR on the latest Nightly (100.0a1/20220313212642), Beta (99.0b3/20220313185831) and Release (98.0/20220304153049) under Windows 10 x64 and Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
Immediately clicking the browser action as soon as the cursor enters the button boundaries will basically display just a line on the right side, as shown in the image included in the attached .zip.
Lingering a bit over the browser action before clicking it, will display the pop-up properly.

Extensions should not use a remote site as the popup URL.
I checked Chrome's behavior, and it already allows extension resources only.

We're not going to resolve this. On the contrary, remote URLs as popup URLs will be rejected: bug 1760608.
