712359 - Uncancelable modal livebookmark dialog

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[Deb Richardson [:dria] (plz NEEDINFO)]

I managed to get my session into a state that I could not escape without forcing a session restore and killing the related tabs.

STR:

1) Open an RSS feed in a new tab, check the "always subscribe using [Live Bookmarks]" checkbox, and subscribe to the feed as a live bookmark

2) Go to Planet Mozilla and let the page load completely - http://planet.mozilla.org

3) Find the list of three feeds in the right-hand column (Atom, RSS 2.0, RSS 1.0). Very quickly, right-click on them all -- as quickly as you can.  The trick here is to click on a second one before the first one has finished opening and popping up the "Subscribe" dialog box.

If you manage to click on a second link before the first has finished opening its dialog, when the dialog does open it is totally broken -- Neither the subscribe nor cancel buttons work, and there's no way to dismiss that dialog or do anything else with your browser because it is modal.

I repro'd this in 8, 9, 10, and 11.

Edgecasey!

I don't know if we ever had a subscribe item in the context menu. We do have bookmark, but that opens straight away, and there's no time to right-click again (probably due to no server route).

Hence I think we can close this.
