[Ah, I was actually going to ask Akkana yesterday whether this was a bug or not. ;-]

I'm not sure how you saw text selection in option elements yesterday because they worked fine as far as I know. It was my check in this morning that broke it.

Hey, Rod --- Sure. Let's see if we're talking about the same thing; I used the 1999082412 build for Mac OS. If you: - go to http://slip/projects/marvin/copy-paste/copy-bad-stuff/copy-bad- stuff.html - select the entire page contents, copy, and go to the Clipboard ...the following Bad Things will have happened: - the text labels from the Submit and Reset buttons were selected (but at least not copied to the Clipboard) - (as I believe you describe here), the selected OPTION item ("A bit'o'random text") will be copied to the Clipboard. Is this the same thing that we're both talking about, or should I break this into a separate bug report? Thanks!

What you just described is very closely related, but more general. It might be good to have it as a separate bug.

Build ID: 1999111612 (M11) Platform: Macintosh PowerBook G3/300, MacOS 9, 128Mb RAM, VM off. I've found an odd behavior related to this bug. Not sure if it's been reported before. Try the following: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ Select "Query Existing Bug Reports." Under Platform, click Macintosh. Press &hold shift key down. Under Status, click "Resolved." Note that every item in every select list between Macintosh and Resolved has been selected.

Yes, this is the correct behavior on Windows, and there is abug files against it for the Mac. The problem is partically the select lement's select code and partically keybinding work.

After fixing bug 12520, I though it would be really easy to fix that one too. I tried a bit and gave up after checking in a partial fix in html.css v3.25. With my fix, you can no longer start the selection from within the list but if you click on top of the page and drag to the bottom, the text within the list is still selected. I could not fix it just by playing with html.css: maybe I did not look deep enough, maybe it's elsewhere... Anyhow I already did more than my share, it's your turn now.
