Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: DOM: UI Events & Focus Handling, defect)

Description

[Martijn Wargers (dead)]

See upcoming testcase.

To reproduce:
- Open testcase in new tab
- Select the newly created tab with the testcase
- Middle-click to close the tab.
- Now select some text and right-click to bring up the context menu

Result:
The generic context menu comes up, but you should get the 'special' context
menu, when a selection has been made.

This regressed between 2005-01-19 and 2005-01-20:

Is this windows-only?  middle-click doesn't close tabs on Linux...

Comment 3

[Martijn Wargers (dead)]

Well, I get the bug also when right-clicking on the tab and clicking on 'Close
Tab' in the popup menu.
It also affects input fields and their context menu.

Yeah, sounds windows-only -- I can't reproduce this on Linux.

That said, does the focus-suppression thing mrbkap landed yesterday help here?

You meant bug 309027, right? I'm still getting this bug with the 2005-10-24 trunk build.
