User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008120122 Firefox/3.0.5 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008120122 Firefox/3.0.5 When downloading a file and selecting 'Save File', a file dialog appears to select where the file should be saved. If you want to create a new folder, you can (or could before) click the right menu button to get the Explorer context menu. I observe the following oddities: - the New menu item only has 1 child, called 'New' itself which will create a shortcut - the New menu fails to show all other items such as 'New Folder' or any file type that can be created with this context menu - when moving the mouse over other items in the top-level context menu, some of them (in my case Tortoise CVS items) lose their icon Now, this only happens the first time I right-click. If I close the context menu and right-click again, the menu is fine. It looks like a bug in the generation of this menu. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to a site to download a file, for example sourceforge.net 2. When the download-dialog appears, select 'Save File' (your firefox should be configured to prompt you for a location) 3. When the 'Enter name of file to save to..' dialog appears, click right on a white area in the file list 4. Move the mouse to the 'New' item of the context menu Actual Results: The context menu child of 'New' only shows the item 'New' Expected Results: The context menu child of 'New' should show at least: 'Folder' 'Shortcut' ------------ 'Text Document' I'm running Firefox 3.0.5 on Windows XP Pro SP3 with the latest updates (13 jan 2009).
