277847 - Stop button activated when middle clicking inside blank tab

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox :: Toolbars and Customization, defect)

Description

[Ryan VanderMeulen [:RyanVM]]

When a new tab is opened, the stop button is inactive as it should be. However,
when I middle click inside that tab window, the stop button activates.  I've
confirmed this behavior on both 1.0 final and on the 1/10/05 trunk (Mozilla/5.0
(Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8a6) Gecko/20050110 Firefox/1.0+).

Mike, how about something like this?

if (!this.autoscrollEnabled  ||
(this.contentDocument.getBoxObjectFor(this.contentDocument.documentElement).height
<= this.boxObject.height) ||
this.isAutoscrollBlocker(event.originalTarget))
return;

I think it would solve this bug, bug 212002 and bug 266201.

Hmm, no that doesn't work for sites like:
http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/gerv/
where the documentElement is very short.
