Version of OpenOffice.org:
OpenOffice.org 1.1.3, copyright 2003

I have OpenOffice.org selected as the helper application for Microsoft Word .doc
files. When I click on a link whose content-type is Microsoft Word .doc, I get
the OpenOffice.org Writer UI integrated into the Mozilla Firefox window. Now I
can see the text all OK, and scroll it up and down, but none of the popup menus
in the OpenOffice.org Writer UI work. I can't access any menu in the menu bar,
or any widget button providing a popup menu. Widget buttons opening a new window
work OK.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Choose OpenOffice.org Writer as the helper application for Microsoft Word
.doc files.
2. Open a Microsoft Word .doc file in Mozilla Firefox.
3. Try to access the menus in the menu bar.

Actual Results:  
The menu opens, and closes instantly, before even rendering any text in the menu
options.

Expected Results:  
The menu should have stayed open until I choose a menu option.


This is probably not a bug in OpenOffice.org itself. At least when it's working
on its own, the menu bar and popup widget buttons work all OK.

(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
