560481 - File upload dialog firing click event behind itself

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[James Keightley]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-GB; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-GB; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)

When I double click to select a file from the file upload dialog, if there is a clickable entity in the web page behind the dialog, it will autofill the file upload field and close the file upload dialog, but also clicks the entity behind!

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open up file upload dialog
2. Move it so that the icon of the file you wish to click is directly over a clickable entity on the web page
3. Double-click
Actual Results:  
Navigates away

Expected Results:  
Just filled in my file field

I thought that it might be because I was using a thin client that it was getting confused firing clicks across the network, but I managed to reproduce the bug on a laptop too.

I can confirm this with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; pl; rv:1.9.2.8) Gecko/20100722 Firefox/3.6.8. There's no issue on Linux.

Cannot repro on a current Release build of Firefox (v120.0.1).

Closing as RESOLVED FIXED.
