Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 362498

(Calendar :: General, defect)

Description

[Peter Simonyi]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.8.1.1) Gecko/20061204 Firefox/2.0.0.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a2pre) Gecko/20070103 Calendar/0.4a1

The calendar that comes out when using the date-picker (in the New/Edit Task/Event windows) disappears but somehow gets clicked when you click where it was after it's been opened and closed.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add a new Event or Task, or edit an existing one.
2. Open the date-picker's calendar by clicking the down arrow by either the From or To date.
3. Pick a date.  It doesn't work if you close it by clicking the arrow again.
4. Now that the calendar's gone, move the mouse over the space where the calendar was.
5. Try clicking in that space - for example, near the top-left corner of the Description box.
Actual Results:  
The cursor is a hand where the dates on the calendar were.  Clicking when the cursor's a hand sets the date as if the calendar were open.  Clicking above results in the Month or Year menu, depending on where you clicked.  Upon choosing a date, the calendar appears for a flash.
Simply, the mouse behaves as if the calendar were still there.

Expected Results:  
None of that should happen.  Clicking should activate the things that are visible.

This is the same issue (or follow-up issue) as seen in Bug 356505, Bug 362498 and also Bug 364034.

Pretty close to bug 362498 (except I used the term "date picker").
