Was able to reproduce this error on Firefox 1.5 Beta 1

Can't reproduce it. It stays clickable no matter how many times I drag. In IE I
have even more problems, in most cases (but not always) I can't call the text
unless I move my mouse first outside the picture and I assume this is not the
intention.

Tried it in the latest branch and trunk, sorry, forgot to mention it.

Ah, ok. Seems that it may have been corrected in the latest version then. Did
anyone else using Firefox 1.6a1 encounter the same experience?

(About I.E, it tends to have far more incompatibilities with CSS than Firefox
does, so...ROCK ON Firefox! :D)

Yeah, this worksforme in a current trunk build.
