Description

[Edward]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6

This affects BOTH Firefox and the Mozilla Application Suite (SeaMonkey):

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716
Firefox/1.0.6

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050730
SeaMonkey/1.0a

When on the above URL, select the link "Interactive Charting" at the left.  This
will then display a Java applet.  Towards the bottom of the page, there is a
link "Printer Friendly".  Selecting this link, will display a small Java window
with "Reformatting page" inside it, it should also eventually open a new window
from intraday.stockpoint.com, but does not.  That server is listed in the Pop-Up
Blocker for both Firefox and SeaMonkey as ALLOW, yet the window does not open.  

It does open with Internet Explorer 6 though.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to above URL, select Interactive Charting.  Java applet loads in
2.Select "Printer Friendly" towards bottom of page, Java window opens up
indicating a page is reformatting.
3.

Actual Results:  
When selecting "Printer Friendly" link, a popup window from
intraday.stockpoint.com does not open.

Expected Results:  
Popup window from intraday.stockpoint.com should have opened.

Info from JavaScript console (if it helps):

Error: [Exception... "'Permission denied to get property
XULElement.selectedIndex' when calling method:
[nsIAutoCompletePopup::selectedIndex]"  nsresult: "0x8057001e
(NS_ERROR_XPC_JS_THREW_STRING)"  location: "JS frame ::
