Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 294041

(Firefox :: Menus, defect)

Description

[Alec Carlson]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8b5) Gecko/20051006 Firefox/1.4.1

If I have a browser window open and I double-click the window title bar, the
window is "parked" as an icon in the OSX Dock. If I then select "File->New
Window" from the file menu or enter Cmd-N (New Window) nothing happens. The File
menu remains highlighted which shouldn't happen either... I often park pages
that I want to keep in the Dock but then I can't open a new page to go to
another website ): Note that this works correctly if the 1st window is not
parked in the Dock. Also, this fails maybe 75% of the time - not all the time.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open any website page
2.Double-click the window title bar
3.Select File->New Window to open a new browser window
4.File menu remains highglighted and no new window is created.
5.This will sometimes work. But if you click on the Dock Icon to display the 1st
window and then double-click the title bar to park it again it will eventually
fail to create a new window. 

Actual Results:  
Nothing

Expected Results:  
Opened a new (2nd) browser window.
