358132 - no choices appear on click-and-hold of links

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 334065

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[Deborah G Bly]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0

On click-and-hold while cursor is on a desired link no options appear (as they were on 1.5) i.e. open in new window, open in new tab, save as bookmark, etc. I disabled all my extensions, I reinstalled fresh copy of Firefox 2.0 but with the same result. It does not matter if I have specified open new links in new tab or new window -- only goes to the new link in the same window.

Also preference windows are all cut off not allowing choices to be made or seen.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Press and hold on html link.
2.--
3.--

Actual Results:  
No new tab opens, no new window; doesn't matter what one has chosen in the program's preferences/settings -- just jumps to new website. 

Expected Results:  
Goes to new website without option of a tab or a new window.
Should have opened a new tab since this is the option I specified in the preferences, or at least opened a new window. It did neither. I really miss this feature.

I am using the Walnut Theme -- I updated all my addons/extensions and Walnut Theme did update. I checked for all other updates to my addons/extensions and disabled those not workable with Firefox 2.0.
