393489 - Cancelling a bookmarklet's popup window breaks the URL field

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox :: Toolbars and Customization, defect)

Description

[Adam Nielsen]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.1) Gecko/20061208 Firefox/2.0.0.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.1) Gecko/20061208 Firefox/2.0.0.1

If a bookmarklet is used like the one in this bug's URL field above, it will pop up a window when the bookmark is clicked.  If the popup is cancelled, a void value is returned which breaks the URL entry field - you can't type into it any more.  Other tabs' URL fields will continue to work, just not the tab that had the focus when the bookmarklet was cancelled.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a bookmark with the above javascript URL
2. Click on the bookmarklet and a window will pop up
3. Cancel the popup (for the simplified URL above, OK or Cancel makes no difference)
4. Try typing a new web address into the URL field, and you will find that you can't get the text cursor to go into the field.
Actual Results:  
You don't seem to be able to focus the text field.

Expected Results:  
The URL field should continue to behave as it did before the bookmarklet was clicked.

Oh, my bad - I updated to 2.0.0.6 and this doesn't seem to be a problem any more!
