814885 - Context menu items "Open in new tab/window" don't appear if the link is selected with triple click

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[Michael]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:17.0) Gecko/17.0 Firefox/17.0
Build ID: 20121120063459

Steps to reproduce:

If the link is not clickable and takes up whole line, it can be selected with triple mouse click. But in that case the context menu doesn't contain the items "Open in new tab/window". If the link is selected by pressing and moving the mouse, these items do appear. This bug appears on Linux (Ubuntu 12.10) but doesn't appear on Windows. I think that it happens because of the end of line symbol.

I can't reproduce this in
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:17.0) Gecko/17.0 Firefox/17.0

Does the problem still happen if you restart Firefox in Safe Mode?

I found that it happens because of the extension "Multi Links". Sorry for your time spending.
