726974 - Parent window will only load finish (to another link) when its child window finish an ajax call.

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[Khai Knievel]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:10.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/10.0.1
Build ID: 20120208060813

Steps to reproduce:

I have a form in a window. After clicking submit, it opens a pop-up window(child) and pass the information through "GET" method. The child window will run an ajax call which will call a PHP page to sent photos to Facebook.


Actual results:

While the child window is still loading its ajax call, the parent window is unable to load links from the page. The parent window will only finish loading after its child window


Expected results:

The parent window can still load links from the same server while the child window is loading. 

Do other things in parent window within the server site while child window is loading.

Hello Khai,

sorry to disturb you after more than 2 years, but I think this is still the case in FF.
so i would be happy if you can give us a test case to find a solution for it.

if it is no more the case in an actual FF, please inform us to close the bug!?
