275399 - On multiple monitors, menus/history show up on main monitor, not necessarily monitor with firefox window

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 314279

(Firefox :: Toolbars and Customization, defect)

Description

[Drew Streib]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

If you have Firefox on a second monitor, attached to the machine (in my case a
Powerbook G4), toolbar bookmarks and history bar dropdowns always show up on the
main monitor, even if that isn't the monitor with the Firefox main window. It is
pretty easy to reproduce, and isn't a deal killer, but is probably an easy fix.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set up MacOS X with two monitors (non-mirrored).
2. Move Firefox window to second monitor.
3. Click the down arrow on the history bar, or open a toolbar bookmarks dropdown.

Actual Results:  
The dropdown appears, just floating on the other monitor.

Expected Results:  
The dropdown should have appeared under the selection in question.
