When you click on a link that opens a pop up and immediately realize that you dont want to open that, you press escape. after keeping escape pressed for a few seconds, the number of pop ups blocked by firefox keeps going up. then onwards, the press any key on the keyboard and still the number will go up.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a HTML page and create a link with Javascript event onkeypress="window.open(this.href);return false;"
2.run on browser, right click and immediately press any key.
3.keep pressing anyone key to see the number of pop ups opened going up.
Actual Results:
Number of popups going up goes up, though havent seen the max till where it goes. the max i was able to hold the key to see the the numbers could go up to was 3000.
Expected Results:
should only show how much number of pop ups were blocked.
<p><a href="somefile.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onkeypress="window.open(this.href);return false;">some link name</a></p>

With the event on the link I am not seeing the event fire on a key press:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a href="http://mozilla.org" onkeypress="window.open(this.href);return false;">
Hello!</a>
</body>
</html>
With the event on body I am seeing the pop counter increment correctly on each key press.
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
</script>
</head>
<body onkeypress="window.open(this.href);return false;">
<a href="http://mozilla.org">Hello!</a>
</body>
</html>
Let me know if this sample isn't correct. If you are seeing different results with this sample code please try the samples in safe mode -> http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode

Sorry for a late revert. I have tried the same code that you have given and it produces the same result.

I'm not clear on what you mean with the 'same result'. The pop-up counter incrementing or the same results as I listed?
Did you try the sample pages in Safe Mode?

I guess this is not happening right now. Though will give you an update after checking it once again...
I reckon you still try using the same code i have provided.
<p><a href="somefile.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;"
onkeypress="window.open(this.href);return false;">some link name</a></p>
