Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win95; en-US; rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030401

I get to a state where no window has the focus.

While this is the general case on my Win95 when playing around with windows;
This does not happen (= focus is back to initial window) with:
*Moz v1.4a browser or messenger: Ctrl-N (new browser window), Alt-F4 (close it)
 (The fix could be at hand there !?)
*Netscape v4.8 mail: "New Msg" button, Alt-F4
 (Then this is a '4xp' bug.)


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. (Messenger being focused)
2. Click "Compose" button
3. Alt-F4 to close the new empty message window

Actual Results:  
Focus is lost.

Workaround: Need to Alt-Tab to focus back to Messenger window.


Expected Results:  
Automatically focus back to Messenger window.

(NB: At first, this request applies only if there has been no Alt-Tab or alike
while the new message window was opened.)
