(Firefox :: Menus, defect)

Description

[David Jones]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050414 Firefox/1.0.3
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050414 Firefox/1.0.3

Under certain conditions (see "Steps to Reproduce"), when I click on any of the
main menus (File, Edit, View, Go, Bookmarks, Tools, Help) the menu appears in
the opposite monitor in my dual monitor setup.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. On a PC with dual monitors configured, disable the secondary monitor.
2. Load Firefox so that it is running in the primary monitor.
3. Enable the secondary monitor.
4. Move the Firefox window entirely to the secondary monitor.
5. Click on any one of the main menus (File, Edit, View, Go, Bookmarks, Tools,
Help) to make the menu drop down.

Actual Results:  
The menu appeared in the primary monitor (the monitor opposite from the one in
which the Firefox application is displayed).

Expected Results:  
The menu should have appeared in the secondary monitor (the monitor in which the
Firefox application is displayed).
