57561 - Colors should be chosen in the colorpicker oncommand

Status: NEW

(Core :: XUL, defect, P4)

Description

[Blake Ross]

Colorpicker colors should trigger onmouseup.  This would allow you to mousedown 
on a button to show the colorpicker popup, mouseover the color you want, and 
release the mousebutton all in one smooth, fast, efficient process.  This is 
also consistent with menu behavior (except context menus)

they should actually be oncommand.  I have a patch that fixes most of the 
colorpicker bugs.

[Stuart Parmenter]

my patch is hiding from me.

Is this bug still a real problem?
There was no action since 04-2001, maybe implement Stuart's patch or just close
this bug?

Yes it's a real problem :D My application needs a colorpicker but it doesn't work with Firefox 1.5.0.3 :(

Can anyone explain me why does the colorpicker in the "options" panel of Firefox 1.5.0.3 work, and why doesn't it work in my own XUL applications ??? I thought it was the same XUL engine, isn't it ???
