Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 298502

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5

Firefox 1.5 crashes reproducibly when I open a folder in the bookmark toolbar twice. Opening the folder once does work, opening it for the second time will show a blank folder menu and Firefox will hang.
Firefox 1.0.7 on the same machine does not exhibit this bug.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start Firefox 1.5
2. create a folder in the bookmark bar, in case there is none already
3. click on a folder in bookmark bar
4. close the folder menu just openend
5. click on the same folder again

Actual Results:  
Firefox shows the bookmark folder menu, but it appears blank, and Firefox hangs indefinitely (Mac OS X shows the "spinning beachball" cursor).


Expected Results:  
Firefox should open the bookmark folder menu each time you click on the bookmark toolbar to open it, it should not hang when you do this for the second time.

add to step 2: "...and drag a couple of bookmarks onto the created folder"
