649868 - Markers on "Getting Started with Firefox" page disappear if you hover & unhover them quickly

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 644564

(www.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

Description

[Daniel Holbert [:dholbert]]

Attachment: screencast of bug

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
 1. Load http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/central/
 2. Hover over a marker.
 3. Move your mouse off the top-right of the marker, and then quickly back over it.

ACTUAL RESULTS: Sometimes the marker just disappears when you re-hover (instead of popping up a text bubble)

See attached screencast to demonstrate.

For the record, the screencast was made in Firefox 4.0 on Linux:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:2.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0

A current trunk nightly shows the same behavior, too.

Yeah, the code for this effect is far from perfect. I just haven't got the time to look back at it since the launch.

Comment 3

[Chris More [:cmore]]

I am still able to replicate this problem randomly on /central page.

Comment 4

[Anthony Ricaud (:rik)]

I think this was a dupe of bug 644564. Which was recently fixed.

Comment 5

[Daniel Holbert [:dholbert]]

Yup, looks like a dupe, and looks like it's fixed.  Thanks!

Marking VERIFIED.
