Details

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8b) Gecko/20050207 Firefox/1.0+ Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8b) Gecko/20050207 Firefox/1.0+ When you download a file (any file will do for this case - a large file will buy more time and work better for this issue) and close out the main browser window, only the download window will be left. However with only the download window open, you cannot control the menubar items except for the FireFox menubar item. If you try to select a menubar item such as Bookmarks, it will just highlight and produce no drop down of your bookmarks. This issue is reproducible everytime and the only way to fix it currently is to wait for the download to finish. Then the Firefox menubar items (File/Edit/View/Go/Bookmarks/Tools/Window/Help) become available and functional again. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start a download file. 2.Close main browser window once download window appears. 3.Go to any of the menubar items (File/Edit/View/Go/Bookmarks/Tools/Window/Help)and they are rendered useless and only highlight when clicked on. No drop down menus appear. 4. Once download is complete, you can then click the menubar items and Firefox works as it should Actual Results: (see Details and Steps to Reproduce for actual results) Expected Results: The software should have given drop down menus for the menu item selected. Instead, it just highlights the name of that menu and fails to produce the desired result. Theme: SilverSkin 2.6.3 (happens with default theme, too)
