61032 - Javascript pop-up window which should stay focused loses focus

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 77675

(Core :: DOM: UI Events & Focus Handling, defect, P3)

Description

[justin]

When one is not logged into the credit.com network, upon accessing a page the
user is sent to an authorizer which pops up the login window which the user can
use to log in.  It then uses history.back() to get back to the page that the
access was attempted from and then focuses the login window.  The login window
stays on top in Internet Explorer, Netscape on Linux, and Opera.  On Mozilla it
looses focus and winds up behind the main window. Thanks for the help!

Oh yes, to have the system prompt you with a login popup click on "Correct
Errors On Your Credit Report"

Confirming bug on Linux as reported. Using commercial build 2000110509.
And on WinNT, same build date, it's even worse: the pop-up window doesn't
appear at all, while the parent window turns blank. Or when I put the URL 
for the top link, "Correct Errors on Your Credit Report", for example, 
directly into the URL bar on WinNT and hit enter, the browser goes blank. 


Here is the URL: 


          https://www.yourcredit.com/code/creditReportDispute.cgi?



On Linux, this triggers some sort of redirect, and the pop-up window appears
above and then behind the original browser window, as the reporter describes -


Browser issue, not engine. Not sure of which component should get it, however.
Reassigning to Browser-General for help on this - thanks

There has been much focus work and window layering improvement since this was 
last investigated.  Please retest with current builds.

Possible dupe of 77675 but I still need to look into the claims below that 
sometimes we don't even get popup windows on WinNT.  That would be something 
else.

[Win98SE, Mozilla 0.9.2 build 2001062815, AMD K6-2 400, 48MB RAM, 3800/128 kbps Cable modem]

Similar testcase: http://www.rabobank.nl

Click "Betalen & Sparen", the orange image/button in the left top corner.
Here's the direct URL:
   http://www.rabobank.nl/data/custom/custom_openwin1300.htm?node_id=1300

That page only contains a small javascript:
   <script language=Javascript>
      window.open('https://bankieren.rabobank.nl/rabo/login.htm?verzoek=REKSAL&Node_ID=1300', 'betalen')
      history.back()
   </script>

This opens a popup login window. For a short time (2 seconds), focus is on this popup window, but then the main window goes back one page in history. Focus is now on the main window and the popup window is hidden behind the main window.

In other browsers (Opera 5.12, NN4.77, MSIE 6.0b2) the popup login window keeps focus and stays on top of the main window.
