Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 372177

(Core :: DOM: Events, defect)

Description

[Ryuichi KUBUKI]

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a3pre) Gecko/20070221 Minefield/3.0a3pre ID:2007022101 [cairo]

1. Enable X-mouse autoraise in Windows XP by http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx
2. Create http://slashdot.org/ in the Bookmark Toolbar Folder
3. Close FF
4. Open FF
5. Push the button in the bookmark toolbar to open Slashdot
6. File | New Window
7. Move the mouse cursor to the first window and move the focus onto it from the new window created in 6
8. Push the button in the bookmark toolbar in the first window to open Slashdot

Expected:
The first window opens Slashdot

What I get:
The second window opens Slashdot


Actually I see other wierdness such as PageDn/Up key moves the second window / can't edit the editbox in the first window etc. but they are all caused by malfunctioning focus.

This build works as intended.

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a3pre) Gecko/20070220 Minefield/3.0a3pre ID:2007022005 [cairo]

Today's build is still broken.

The resulting behavior in the comment #1 seems to have changed slightly in this build or an older build, the second window gets raised when opening a new page from the bookmark tool bar in the first window.

FWIW, this change could be the result of bug 371564 patch !?
