856119 - Work - Web content covered by the tab strip should not be active

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox for Metro Graveyard :: App Bar, defect)

Description

[Yuan Wang(:Yuan) – Mobile Firefox Design Lead]

Currently when the tab strip is open, the web content underneath is still active. 
If there is a link that is covered by the tap strip, tapping on the exact position can still open the link. Also now, tapping on the grey background of tap strip is considered the same as tapping on the webpage. It closes the tap strip. Those behaviors can be confusing to our users. 

The web content(links, forms, etc) that are covered by tab strip should not be active.
Tapping on the background of tab strip should not trigger the closure of tab strip.

This is probably another case where we need to work around bug 837242.

Work around bug 837242. It's harmless but we should consider removing it once bug 837242 is fixed.

Patch v1

Note: I think onclick="void(0)" might prevent some harmless warnings on the JS console...
