STR: 1. Open web console on any web page, and cause something to be written to it (it doesn't matter what). 2. Select a line, right click, and select Copy. Nothing happens. The contents of the clipboard remain intact. And no error gets reported to the error console either. This seems to work on Mac at least...

(In reply to comment #0) > This seems to work on Mac at least... [I meant to file this yesterday but ran out of time] On Windows, if I context click on an entry the selection turns from blue to grey and the nothing happens on the copy; But if I context click on the couple of pixels between entries then there is no problem with the copy. In fact, if I click an entry it doesn't turn blue until I click in the gap. Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.0; rv:2.0b10pre) Gecko/20110118 Firefox/4.0b10pre

I can't follow the patches but bug 605621 (which is only half checked-in) and bug 613280 may be related.

Yes, it is possible that those are related. bug 605621 is expected to land in the next day or two (for beta 10).

this is happening on Linux and Windows. I'm doing some testing in Windows with the style patch applied to see how much of this it fixes. Hopefully all of it.

Good news, everybody! A build with the remaining patch applied from bug 605621 does indeed fix the selection and copy issues in Windows and should improve Linux as well. Marking this bug as dependent.

should be fixed by landing of bug 605621.

Reopening because bug 605621 was backed out.

and checked back in

Still see the issue on build: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:2.0b10pre) Gecko/20110120 Firefox/4.0b10pre Is this landed yet?

it'll be in today's (01/20) build.

Verifying that the Windows behaviour from comment #1 now seem OK; The order of multiple selections is odd but that is bug 626484. Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.0; rv:2.0b10pre) Gecko/20110121 Firefox/4.0b10pre
