Details

When viewing an ftptree rightclicking a file both opens the rightclicking menu (as expected) AND loads the file as if it was leftclicked (not expected) I'm using Win98SE and the 1999122023 build Steps to reproduce: 1. Enter ftp://ftp.scene.org/pub in the url-field 2. Rightclick index.txt

Sounds like a URI dispatching problem.
cc'ing melton and waterson.
I don't think this is a dispatching problem at all. If you hit the right mouse button over urls in regular http pages, we don't try to load those links. We only get in trouble when you try to bring up a context menu while you are in the ftp directory listing pane. I wonder if that pane is wired up incorrectly so it grabs events for right and left mouse click and interprets both as a user-click event. I'll try to re-assign this to the author of the directory listing stuff if I can find that out in CVS.
Is this a dup of bug 16982?
Thanks Jerry good catch. This does indeed look like a manifestation of the same problem. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 16982 ***
