When I go to youtube or similar video site, when i expand to full screen the clip i am watching, then close to small screen again using the escape key, i have to mouse click on the page once before any further action can be made.. as if i had left the application, and gone to another.. 
This didn't happen on my old ppc macs, only on my new intel macbook pro. At the top of the screen, firefox is still seen to be the application in 'front', not the finder etc.. It just doesn't respond so hot keys are useless now. the mouse HAS to be used. Any ideas?

Happens every time. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.go to youtube
2.open video and expand to full screen
3.return to small screen mode using escape key, and try to close that tab using command w (close tab). You will find you have to click on the page with the mouse first. 


Expected Results:  
After the video window is reduced to normal size again, firefox should respond to any hot keys, and should close the tab or open a new one or whatever you want it to do.

What I'm saying is is that my g5 ppc mac running firefox doesn't have this problem, my new macbook does. So it's a bug. It's devolution.
