753536 - Focusing page after focusing the Location Bar doesn't refocus any frames you previously had focused

Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Core :: DOM: Events, defect, P5)

Description

[DJ Mountney]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:12.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/12.0
Build ID: 20120423122928

Steps to reproduce:

Focused in an iframe, like using a wysiwyg editor, and then click into the navigation bar, and then click back into the page but not on the editor.

Example: http://jsfiddle.net/p4dmountney/cr4YB/


Actual results:

Firefox only fired a focus on the clicked window


Expected results:

Firefox should have fired focus on the iframe first, and then on the page. This is what it does if you click between tabs, or click between windows. This is also what Chrome, Safari, and IE do.

Here are the repro steps from the fiddle, The setup just adds a focus listener to the iframe window and page window, the handler logs the event target.

Repro Steps;
    1. Open Console
    2. Click into the iframe element
    3. Notice the console logs of focus on the iframe
    4. Click into the FF Navigation Bar
    5. Click in the body but not on the iframe
    6. Notice the console logs of focus on the iframe's parent

    Compare with results from the following
    1. Open Console
    2. Click into the iframe element
    3. Notice the console logs of focus on the iframe
    4. Click onto another window
    5. Click in the body but not on the iframe
    6. Notice the console logs of focus on both the iframe and the iframe's parent
