Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 257121

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[Ivan Lashutin]

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

Can't focus with the mouse on new tab, which is opened by middle-click, when other firefox window has a file open dialog open. Shortcut keys work, so it is possible to focus on new tab by pressing Ctrl+Tab. Ctrl+W + Ctrl+T also work.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open two separate firefox windows, lets say A and B, and load any page into them.
2. In A, do a File->Open, do not select any file, leave the dialog open, switch to B
3. In B, open a link in a new tab
4. The link opens, but you can not focus the new tab with the mouse.


Expected Results:  
You should be able to focus the new tab with the mouse.

Firefox 2.0, default theme, AdBlock+ extension
