 Repeating all the issues and bugs you see in any bug you comment on
 just doesnt help. it increases bug noise and increases likelyhood that
 triagers miss the important parts - which is probably what you see
 here and why you are unhappy about how things go.
   
If you don't like noise, instead of commenting about unrelated Mozilla 
Bug 312225 in here, wonder why the workaround I've found is a 
workaround, as well as carefully read correlated mouse bug descriptions.
Workarounds and analysis bring explanations to a developer, but the good 
work I've done will be useless until they read that.
I hope you don't call noise what others called brilliant finds.
I'm sorry I have no more time to repeat things to get them understood.

2008-06-05 Thread André Pirard

 That bug is supposed to be fixed in RC1. What is left here is _true_
 random selection - which has been confirmed multipl times, but noone
 could come up with easy to follow instructions to reproduce it.
   
Did you try what I mentioned?
Use a slow system (or slow it down), be sure to have Flash enabled, go 
to Google News, easiest is to make some search by date, you get an URL 
list, right-click-open-link-in-new-tab it in sequence rapidly. Assuming 
you'll have as many Flash ads as here, you may meet the problem.
Firefox does not make good multitasking, the Flash player probably 
blocks resources (why the heck does it play in the background? (spending 
CPU time showing things nobody sees)) and the focus window does not 
receive its share of processing time. These timing issues probably 
reveal a mouse driving bug that doesn't show  otherwise.
On a small computer of mine, response time and false clicks appear with 
6-8 launched windows running.
If I do the same experiment with Flash applet disabled, it's well after 
launching 20 windows that the problem starts to manifest faintly.

Also, the repeated crashes that made FF disappear without notice nor 
apologies were obviously caused by Flash.

I wonder why we he have beta software in a LTS release.
Now I enable Flash only for the time I really need it .   Way way way 
cooler.

But yet, if only for trying :
Question : may I install both FF2 and FF3 to run in the same system?

Yes, Flash unfortunately comes with many crashes, yes. Most crashes
however are no firefox bugs. Have you tried the flash 10 preview?
maybe it improves stability?

Although your remark is not related to this bug either, may I point out that 
thinking persons claim that just like the crash of your login session mustn't 
crash your system, and the crash of FF mustn't crash your session, a Flash 
crash shouldn't crash the window (page) in which it occurs and must definitely 
not crash the dozen or so Firefox windows.
YES, ALL the presumably Flash-originating crashes I've seen ARE partly Firefox 
bugs.  FF3 is simply unusable for reading Google News.
Very strange I must fight for these opinions !!!

2008-05-31 Thread sctrn
(Hopefully my description is not too confusing...sorry...I try to
explain it as clearly and concisely as possible)

I experience something similar, but the behavior and the bug is as
follows.  By default the context menu when it is displayed, will drop
down (to use a Windows' term), to the right of the link (or area) you
have clicked in the browser.  However if the length of the drop down is
too long to be displayed as a drop down, and there is sufficient space
to display it as a drop up then it will drop up instead, that is, it
will display to right of and above the link. (This, so far,  is correct
behavior). If horizontally the right click occurs in the middle of the
page, this is not a problem.  However, if the link is on the right side
of the page, then when the user up clicks  the right button (mouse right
button up event) during a drop up display , then the hot spot of the
mouse cursor will be over the bottom most selection of the context menu.
As a result , this selection in the context menu will execute and the
context menu will close.  (The correct behavior is that the context menu
should open, stay open,  and await the next mouse click.)

Thus in summary, if one has  a relatively long context menu and right
clicks  in the lower right part of the web page, then the last (or some
other lower) item in the context menu executes, rather than the context
menu getting displayed.

(Ubuntu Firefox 3.0 Beta 5).

That's really funny. I'm still on Hardy with FF3.0b5 and I can't

can't reproduce it!

Has it gone for anyone else too (ok, I think we've got a few bugs mixed
up here. I'm talking about the bug I've given the description for, which
is when you close a content menu (using Esc or left-clicking elsewhere)
and when you right click somewhere else it works as if the menu was
still there and performs that menu-item's action).

Anyone?

I avoided the right-click menu since the last time I reported this bug.
Should I post a list of everything I've upgraded?

This issue is somewhat opaque to me and I never could reproduce it.

Maybe you are using some extension that contributed to this?
And maybe that extension was auto updated or something in the

Well, I can't seem to find logs that show which Add-ons have been

AdBlock Plus
Mouse Guestures (I just found out it was enabled now, initially it wasn't

Session Manager

If there was a problem with these plugins then I presume that's how it
got fixed.

Hmm. Wondering why this bug is still marked as low, as it makes ff3b5
almost unusable for me sometimes.

I'm running a Dell Inspiron 1501, with Hardy 32 bit. I've noticed that
while a seemingly random right-click option will surprise me regularly
(every time I use google, slashdot etc which is every day), if I move
the cursor to a slightly different part of the link, the normal right-
click menu will appear, but if I keep on clicking in the same spot, the
same right-click option will repeat itself each time I click.

Down-grading to ff2 until this is sorted out.

I think slasher-fun is on the right track, actually. Note that normal
behavior is that holding the right-mouse-button and then releasing it
over a menu item will activate that item. This might be a virtual
right-release which is tied to the release of the button with the
initial right=click, and would explain why clicking and holding is a
workaround.

2008-05-21 Thread dougleduck
Its nothing to do with clicking the left mouse button accidentally, not
here anyway.

The behaviour in firefox for me is this. Right clicking a link can bring
several different options, such opening new tabs, windows, (as well as
some add-ons like ad-block), and also bringing up a new thunderbird
compose mail with the link as the body of the email. Considering this is
not in my right click menu its can't be my mouse going wrong.

I have found that once it starts it will consistently do the same thing.
Left click elsewhere on the page sometimes seems to get rid of it
(though not consistently so not sure if this actually works at all). I
note that I can right click a nautilus folder while this is happening
and get normal behaviour there, and go back to firefox and find the
strange behaviour still happens.

None of the methods above for stopping it have worked for me and I have
found no way to reproduce it as yet.

System is P4, so not a 64bit problem, 512MB RAM Dell Inspiron 1100.
Haven't got compiz installed, just gnome.

slasher-fun,
I don't think so. This doesn't happen on the first right-click for me. This 
happens for the second right click, after I have already right clicked 
previously, and pressed escape or left-clicked elsewhere. If you scroll up, you 
will see exactly what happens. I've tried this out many times, just to check if 
what I've said is correct, and out of all my experiments till now, either the 
bug doesn't appear, or it does exactly what I predict it to be.

[Bug 187313] Re: right click (with button release) might activate popup-menu-item

2008-05-21 Thread slasher-fun
I didn't say that you were clickling left mouse button accidentally! I
said (or actually tried to say) that, on what I can see when this bug
happens to me, it is exactly as if I would make a right click, then
chose the closest item of the mouse pointer in the menu.

For example if I right click on a link, and if there is enough space
under the link, the item under the mouse pointer is the first of the
menu open in a new window. And this is what happens what the bug
appears. If there is not enough space under the link, then the menu
appears above the mouse pointer, and the item is the last one, for me
block with adblock. And this is also the window that is opened when
the bug appears. Same thing with the bookmark window.

So I'm pretty sure that just after a right click, a virtual left click
is immediately made, leading to the behavior we can see in this bug.
What we should find is what exactly virtually presses the left click
button after a right click.

Definitely not a virtual left-click.

There is no menu option to open an email (in Thunderbird) with the link
in the subject - but this is an occasional aberrant response.  Do any
non-Thunderbird users get this?  If not, it is presumably an interaction
directly between FF and TB.

It is reported at the Firefox bugzilla on Mac OSX too.

I've not seen that but the right click is context sensitive and 'Send link' is 
similar to what you're describing? - though that typically seems to put the 
link in the body, Thunderbird might then use the first line as title??

Actually this is NOT a random behavior : what happens is that
immediately after the right-click, a left-click is pressed,
selectionning the first item of the menu.

@Joseph:

Brilliantly spotted. I can reproduce the bug consistently in Firefox
like you describe. My Firefox window doesn't need to be maximized - it
just has to be near to the right hand side of the screen.

@André:

Also brilliantly spotted. This happens on mine as well, including on the
desktop, and would explain why I have occasionally noticed this bug
outside of Firefox. I think it also explains some of the 'random' link
selections in Firefox.
