Using build 2001061905 on Win2K Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a folder on the Personal Toolbar 2. Right click on the folder and select "Expand" 3. Either minimize Mozilla or bring another window in front of it Results: The expanded folder will remain visible with Mozilla minimized, and stay on top of all other windows.
Similar case in bug 85199.
See also bug 86649, Personal toolbar bookmark folder context menu should not contain Expand.
As of build 2001092803, I"m not seeing the Expand menu item for Personal Toolbar folders. If someone can confirm, I think we can close this bug.

Please note: While the folder is "expanded" Mozilla does not repond to keyboard input. Changing OS to all based on duplicates. Adding patch keyword.

I am seeing a very similar situation here. Only, the way to reproduce it is to drag a link to the personal toolbar over 2 or more folders on the toolbar. A couple of the folders will expand, one will close, but the other is left hanging open and won't go away just like when you right click and choose "expand" on a personal toolbar folder. That bug 70812 is pretty insidious. If there is a patch for this, please get it in before 1.0!!! This could be *very* annoying. Jake
Related problem. If I have multiple folders on Personal Toolbar, expanding more than one thru Expand context menu will not close any of the previously expanded. Each newly expanded folder becomes a top-level window on top of all the previously expanded folders. Also, Mozilla wouldn't minimize. Related, bug 113427 is about using a bookmark two levels down inside expanded folder. W2K SP2, Build ID 2002031104

A patch to bug 113247 was just checked in which I hope will also fix this bug.
Looks fixed to me using 20021120 on winxp
Fix checked in as part of fix to 113247.

Bug 113427 ;)
This happens again with Build 2003040518 and Windows XP. Also see bug 83141.

I'd also like to note this affects Linux Gecko/20030405 Phoenix/0.5 as well. If Mozilla will be moving to that toolkit, make sure you don't just fix it in the old
it sucks that this is not fixed even in Netscape 7.1 Netscape = Mozilla + AOL Junk
Neil, why didn't your original fix take care of this permanently? Why do we even have an "Expand" option in the context menu? What does that do that clicking on the link in the personal toolbar doesn't do? Seems pretty strange. See comment #16 for a related problem, which no separate bug was filed for. This bug is not preventing keyboard input, so it does not block 70812.

Is this bug even still valid? Bug 232649 says that Expand doesn't even work anymore, and bug 243235 argues for the option's removal. I agree with comment 26. The choice's existance doesn't make any sense. We don't have "follow this link" as the first option for the context menu for an <a> tag, do we?
pch's bookmarks rewrite (bug 196756) broke this. Naughty pch!
