Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko/2008070208 Firefox/3.0.1

When the focus moves away from the selected item in the sidebar, it should change color from dark to gray. This happens correctly when you hit Tab, F6, or click on the content window. It also works ok for Ctrl+Click/Enter on the selected item.

The problem happens when you just use Click/Enter on the selected item.

For Ctrl+Shift+Click/Enter it is a little less clear if the highlighting is technically correct.  While it is NOT gray, the current focus is a bit ambiguous because of a different bug (to be filed later), where BOTH the sidebar and content window seem to be focused. If the sidebar is supposed to remain focused after the Ctrl+Shift+Click/Enter, then the non-gray highlighting is correct.

Reproducible: Always

Confirmed with latest trunk on Windows XP. A clicked bookmark in the sidebar doesn't gray out after clicking it. This is a regression from Firefox 2.

Most likely culprit seems to be bug 232605. I don't know what the correct component for this should be.

This bug seems to have been fixed in ff 3.6.  I tested it in new profiles for both 3.5.7 and 3.6. It still failed in 3.5.7, but works correctly for 3.6, so I am closing this.
