Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 346424

(Firefox :: Menus, defect)

Description

[Jonathan Stanley]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1b1) Gecko/20060728 BonEcho/2.0b1 (LambCutlet.org; O2,SSE2)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20060729 Minefield/3.0a1 ID:2006072912 [cairo]

This appears to be a very recent regression on trunk as it is broken in:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20060729 Minefield/3.0a1 ID:2006072912 [cairo]

... but functional in:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20060728 Minefield/3.0a1 ID:2006072805 [cairo]

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch an afflicted version of Minefield 3.0a1
2. Optionally load a web page, eg: http://www.mozilla.com/
3. Right mouse click anywhere within the application or on the web page itself

Actual Results:  
Any item which normally brings up a context menu (including and not limited to: links, textboxes, textareas, address bar, page body, tab menu, application tool bar)... the very first click will only make the item active/focused/selected.

A second click is required to bring up the usual context menu for whatever item in question. If the menu is then dismissed, the third click will again not bring up the context menu and requires a fourth click to bring up the menu again.

In fact, it appears the context menus are only ever shown on even numbered clicks, and all odd numbered clicks never show the context menu, only bringing the item into active/focused/selected depending on context.

Expected Results:  
The right mouse click context menu should always be shown on odd or even numbered clicks. If an already existing context menu is being shown, then a right mouse click action should automatically destroy it, and recreate a new context menu fitting the last action.
