269527 - Focus lost after encoding changed

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[Hosam]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

After I change the encoding of some pages, a message appears about "POSTDATA"
and "resubmitting information". After pressing OK, the page reloads (I don't
think it is download again), but focus is lost and goes to the previous tab.
Pressing "END" for example would make the previous tab go to the end.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use two tabs to open pages. The second tab should contain a page that
contains POST data (for example, yahoo mail pages).
2. Give focus to the second tab, then change the encoding (for me, I use
Arabic(Windows-1256)). Accept the message about resending "POSTDATA".
3. Press "END" on the keyboard during or after the page reloads.

Actual Results:  
The first tab goes to the end of its page.

Expected Results:  
The second tab should have had focus and gone to the end of the page.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
