214477 - must drag on menu item to activate, otherwise it doesn't work

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 102578

(Core :: DOM: UI Events & Focus Handling, defect)

Description

[Jason Pfingstmann]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030715
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030715

When going to www.polycom.com and click on any menu item (not submenu opening
items), the item will not be activated unless you click and drag on the menu
item.  (Seems to even function with a dragging of 1 pixel).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Go to www.polycom.com
2.  Choose Products and Services, then Video Conferencing, then Group Systems

Actual Results:  
The browser doesn't register the click properly.

Expected Results:  
The page should be loaded that was clicked on.

Dragging the mouse with the left button depressed while on the button will
activate it.

dupe of "licking wrongfully fires onmouseout (dhtml menus, css/edge menus)"

clicking fires mouseout which hides the menu before the click can be handled.

as a workaround until bug 102578 (or your window manager) gets fixed, you can
use sloppy focus or disable click-to-raise.
