79293 - Can only right click on a link and 'open in new window' once per window

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 78725

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[duraid]

To reproduce:

- Visit a page
- Right click on a link and choose "Open Link in New Window"
- Attempting to right click on a link in the former page now fails. ctrl+left
click to 'open in new window' still works, however
- No matter what navigation occurs in the original window, one won't be able to
right click on a link in it.
- However, one *can* right click a link on page A to go to page B, then right
click on a link on page B to go to page C, etc etc...

Workaround:

If unable to right click on a link on a page, right click somewhere that is 
_not_ a link (i.e. the popup menu which appears reads 'Back... ... ...') then 
proceed to right click on a link and the correct behaviour results (i.e. a popup 
menu 'Open link in new window... ... ...')
