231582 - Focus lost in pages with frames after toggling sidebar on/off

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

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

Description

[Hans]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040113
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040113

After toggling the sidebar view on/off with "F9" key, the focus is lost from the
active frame. Will only happen on pages with frames.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the URL given. The focus is in the left frame with the scrollbar.
2. Toggle Sidebar off the on again by pressing F9 key twice.


Actual Results:  
Focus is "lost", ie. no frame/window seem to have the focus. Pressing the tab
key once activates the left frame (dottet line around frame). If you scroll the
frame by keyboard the dotted line disappears.

Expected Results:  
Frame should not loose the focus.

Only difference I noticed is that the left frameset doesn't recieve initial
focus on page load.
