If Gmail is open in one tab but another tab is focused and the window is resized then when you switch back to the Gmail tab the layout is not updated. A page reload is required to get Gmail to update its layout. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Gmail (or any webpage that executes a script onResize) in a browser tab. 2. Create a second browser tab and make it active. 3. Resize the browser window. 4. Switch back to the first tab and observe that the script did not execute.
I've also seen this with Firefox 1.0, and Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b) Gecko/20050203 Firefox/1.0+ Instead of a page reload, a second window resize is sufficient to reflow the page. Fallout from bug 227361 ?
Yes, very likely.

Statistically, we have found that bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code. While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we are asking for your help in focussing our efforts.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved. Thank you for your help in this matter.

I think this is WFM now, not?
I think this bug goes beyond the onresize event. When I load a tab with, for example, Bank of America and quickly go to a new or different tab before the page loads. After loading the page I come back to the tab, the focus is not in the textbox as it should be - as it would had I never left the tab.
earl.bobby@gmail.com, that's a different bug. I suggest you file a new bug for that (if it doesn't already exist).
