User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20060611 Minefield/3.0a1 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20060611 Minefield/3.0a1 When moving the mouse from one menu item with a sub-menu to another the second item will get highlighted for a fraction of a second but the highlight is removed when the sub-menu popup window of the first item gets closed. As a result the sub-menu of the second item is not displayed until the mouse is moved again. This also happens when I try to D&D a URL to the bookmarks toolbar where this behavior is really irritating. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Hover the mouse over "View->Text Size" and wait for the sub-menu to appear. 2. Move the mouse quickly to "View->Page Style". The mouse movement has to stop before the sub-menu of "View->Text Size" closes. Actual Results: "View->Page Style" gets highlighted for a short moment but when the sub-menu of "View->Text Style" closes the highlight is removed and the new sub-menu doesn't pop up. When you now move the mouse again a little bit the item will be highlighted again and the new sub-menu pops up. Expected Results: The old sub-menu should close and the new item should stay highlighted and it's sub-menu should pop up. Only happens in trunk builds, not in the 1.5 release I tested. I'm not sure if the delay before closing a sub-menu is dependent on the machines performance so slower systems *might* be more affected than faster ones.
