716038 - [adbe 3054263] Firefox 8 on MacOS 10.7 does not dispatch NPCocoaEventWindowFocusChanged when right mouse button is depressed

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Core :: Widget: Cocoa, defect)

Description

Attachment: test media

The Adobe Flash Player plugin has added support for responding to middle and right mouse.  When active, Firefox delivers mouse events to the plugin, including middle and right mouse button down events.  However, the right and middle button down events are not accompanied by dispatch of the NPCocoaEventWindowFocusChanged event.  The Flash player uses the value of the focus.hasFocus member of the NPCocoaEventWindowFocusChanged event to control acquisition of host focus.  Without the NPCocoaEventWindowFocusChanged event, click processing is not initiated and the Flash Player plugin cannot recognize right and middlle mouse click or mouse up events.

To reproduce:

run attached content in Firefox 8.
without any other interaction, right click on the lower left circle.

Result: 
right mouse down is detected, but not click, or mouse up. 
then left click anywhere on the plugin area.
now all right mouse events are detected.   

Expected: 
all right mouse events are detected even the first time.  Test in Safari for correct behavior.

Whoever gets to this should probably test first with my DebugEventsPlugin from bug 441880.
