299722 - Some popups get through, some aren't notified

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 296986

(Firefox :: Settings UI, defect)

Description

[Hendrik Maryns]

Using latest nightly, dutch version.

I tried the different popuptests on that website.  On the first link,
http://www.popuptest.com/popuptest1.html, the popups are blocked fine, but I get
no warning message, nor an icon in the status bar.  Same thing in 1.0.4.
Same (i.e. nothing) happens on the second link,
http://www.popuptest.com/popuptest12.html, and the third,
http://www.popuptest.com/popuptest2.html, on both versions.
It should be mentioned that I didn't get the popups on the first two links with
IE (no tooblars whatsoever) as well, got one on the third though.

On the fourth link, it works fine, as on the fifth.

On the sixth link, http://www.popuptest.com/popuptest14.html, again nothing
happens, as on the seventh, http://www.popuptest.com/popuptest10.html and the
eighth, http://www.popuptest.com/popuptest9.html and ninth,
http://www.popuptest.com/popuptest11.html.  These don't work in IE either,
except for the the eighth.

THEN, most severe: the tenth link, http://www.popuptest.com/popuptest8.html,
causes a popup to come through!  Both versions.

The eleventh and twelfth both do nothing (also in IE).

BUT the thirteenth, http://www.popuptest.com/popuptest6.html, allows the popup!

The `good ones' on the site referred to on the bottom work well.

All popups referred to under the TangoZebra link are blocked fine (though there
are some nice ones in there :-p)

In the latest Firefox build all of these pop-ups are blocked, only
http://www.popuptest.com/popuptest14.html
http://www.popuptest.com/popuptest8.html
http://www.popuptest.com/popuptest6.html
show no notifier bar and no info-icon on the statusbar.

Correction: http://www.popuptest.com/popuptest8.html does come through but I
didn't see it for this code in userContent.css prevented it:
#DropIn {display: none !important}

Those are not real popupss, they are divs styled to have the text "popup" in
them. This bug is a duplicate of an invalid bug

Still, it is not right that I don't get any notification on the first few links
mentioned above, so I would reopen this bug, or should I file a new one
specifically for that purpose?
