301262 - Can't Select Subfolders on Personal Toolbar

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

20050715 trunk

After some period of time I can no longer select subfolders of the personal
toolbar folder unless the first tab is focused. The menu pops up, but mouseover
on a subfolder does not highlight nor does it expand the folder. If I click the
subfolder it is expanded, but still nothing highlights. If I switch back to the
first tab, the bookmarks work fine. Switch back to tab two, three, etc. and the
bookmarks don't work.

I've been running into this as well and seem to be able to reproduce this issue
(or a similar issue) by following these steps:

1) Launch FF (Latest build)
2) Load two tabs (I always have two open when I start FF)
3) Click Bookmarks-> and then click "Open in Tabs" in a folder with at least
fifty / seventy-five bookmarks.  Let them all finish loading.
4) Close them all but two.
5) USUALLY at this point I can click on Bookmarks and then hovering over the
folders they are RANDOMLY hightlighted.  USUALLY when I try to select an actual
bookmark from within one of those folders I don't get the highlight either BUT I
can still click on one of them.

I'm currently running into this alot with the following build:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050728
Firefox/1.0+ ID:2005072816

This is still an issue in 20050926 trunk builds. I am beginning to suspect that
it occurs after Acrobat has been used, but not sure about that yet.
