Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 257121

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Owen Hayward]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10.1

When you have the "save image as" dialog open in one browser window, all the
other browser windows that are open loose functionality. (e.g you can't go to
any websites, view the properties of images, etc). 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the Firefox browser.
2. Open up another separate browser window.
3. In the first browser window go to ANY website, find ANY image, right click on
it and go to "save image as". Leave this dialog box open.
4. Go to the second browser window and attempt to go to ANY other website via
the address bar. Type it in and press enter.
5. Go back to the first browser window and close the "save image as" dialog box.
You will notice that the second browser window will load up the website you
requested ONLY AFTER the "save image as" dialog box was closed."
Actual Results:  
I couldn't access the website I wanted to until the "save image as" dialog box
was closed in another browser window.

Expected Results:  
Allowed me to the view the website I requested even though the "save image as"
dialog box was still open.
