275343 - Context Menu Opens Under Toolbars

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 245163

(Firefox :: Menus, defect)

Description

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0
Windows XP Provessional Tablet Edition

When you right click the context menu opens with its bottom above the location
where you clicked.  If I right click an item at the top of a page the context
menu opens with part of it under the toolbars at the top of the screen.  I can't
get to things in the first few blocks of options.  The menu needs to be aware of
the always on top components of the browser and open above or below then
irrespective of where you click on the page.  It doesn't do any good to open a
menu if you can't see all the options.

Attachment: Small browser window with menu extending beyond title bar

With the browser restored down the menu bar extends beyond the browser window. 
This is fine as long as the entire menu is visible on the screen.

I have attached tow screen captures.  The first is the top portion of a
maximized browser window showing the offending behavior.  Only the bottom
portion of the menu is on the screen.  Just to see what would happen I restored
down the browser and opened the context menu again and it extended beyond the
browser window.  I don't have a problem with that as long as the entire menu is
visible on screen.
