Press and hold the left mouse button over a pushbutton, say the
'See bugs in this
component' button. The button does not assume its
depressed look until another event
occurs, say moving the mouse
slightly.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Move mouse cursor over pushbutton.
2.Press and
hold left button without moving mouse.
3.Now move mouse slightly.

Actual Results:  1. A solid
outline appears around the button.
2. A dashed outline appears inside the button.
3. The button
insides shift right and down to look depressed.

Expected Results:  The step 3 results should
happen in step 2.
With 2000071108 linux (rh6.1), I am not seeing this at all. The button will 
depress on the 'click' event, and the 'mousemove' produces no additional
change in the visual appearance of the button. Can you check this again, or
add some additional details on how to reproduce

I'm running on Debian (unstable), and the behavior is just as I described,
and has been that way for as long as I can remember. I don't know what else
to tell you, but I'll be happy to supply more information if you tell me what
you want to know.
I also don't see this on Linux (Red Hat 6.2, Gnome 1.2) 2000071108.
OK, now I have more information, and I don't think it's a Mozilla bug.
I see this behavior when I am running the Enlightenment window manager.
When I run Mozilla alone with no WM, it works fine. Sorry for the false
alarm.
Marking INVALID based on reporter's comment.

actually, it could still be a mozilla bug (not too likely, though).  reporter, 
are you still seeing this with new nightly builds?
Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
Yes, it's still present. And upon further reflection, I think it must
in fact be a Mozilla bug, because I don't see it happening when I use
Netscape (the old one). Then buttons depress when I click on them, and
I don't have to jiggle the mouse.

There is a bug filed, I believe, where a certain option on some WM's will
conflict with the button being "depressed" onclick, observed for buttons
in the UI (XUL). bug 49273. 

This bug was reported against HTML Form Controls, but quite likely it's the
same bug.
hymie@prolifics.com:
Since you report this differently with different WM, I believe that this is the
same problem (some type of click-trapping behavior) reported and better
documented in 49273. I'm marking this as a dup. If you feel strongly otherwise,
post to the bug and we can re-open.
