No text entry (Location bar or forms) will work in that window, as won't keyboard shortcuts like cmd-w. Mouse events are still delivered to select tabs and follow links, but that's it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. minimize firefox window 2. cmd-tab to the finder 3. cmd-tab back to firefox 4. click on the minimized window icon in the dock, or select it from the Window menu 5. attempt to click on the Location bar and type a URL Actual Results: Location bar refuses text input. Expected Results: Location bar accepts text input. Using default theme. Also experienced this bug with 1.5b1 and previous versions. Workaround is to cmd-tab to another application and then back with the desired window non-minimized.

I was able to reproduce this problem using 1.5b2.

still a problem in 1.5rc1.
