Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Tracy Dickerson]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0

When source code states that the window should not be resized manually by the user, the window is able to be resized when the window is not maximized.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Maximize - open application with a pop-up window - can you resize child window?
2.Minimize - open application with a pop-up window - can you resize child window?
3.

Actual Results:  
1) With the parent window maximized, the child window could not be resized.

2) With the parent window not maximized, the child window ignored the restraints given in the code and was able to be resized. 

Expected Results:  
If restraints are written into the code of the page, all windows should or should not be able to be resized depending.

In my case the window should not have been able to be resized by me the tester without changing the code.

We are working on a Flash 9.0.1.6 program and this occurred during the testing stage.

I strongly suggest that you update to Firefox 3.6.3 or later, update your plugins (flash, adobe, etc.), and retest in a new profile.
