260996 - Firefox "Forgets" Element Class Name

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 261074

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Jerry Baker]

Firefox "forgets" the current className of an object when a window is minimized
and restored. Load the example page attached and minimize and restore it. When
focused, it should have an input element with a black background, and when
blurred it should have a white background. If you keep minimizing and restoring
it, you'll see that Firefox alternates the state.

If you minimize and restore this test page several times, you will see exactly
what I am describing.

Attachment: Working

If you use the exact same script, but a slightly different method, the issue
does not occur. Perhaps a timing issue assigning the className many times (the
onfocus and onblur events fire many times each time the window is
restored/minimized)???

Ok. Here's why. When you minimize the window, the following events are fired:

onblur
onblur
onfocus
onblur
onblur
onfocus

Firefox's events are royally hosed.

Same happening in mozilla suite, product should be changed to Browser

Comment 5

This is being caused by Forefox's broken onfocus event.
