Menus not working after customise toolbars (Feisty PPC)

[Warren Jacques]

Binary package hint: firefox

Immediately after customising toolbars, only the menu headings are available - there is nothing in the menus and the headings are greyed-out. Clicking on a menu causes it to become black, but no menu appears.

After restarting Firefox the menus are working ok again.

In Feisty PPC with latest updates (2007-05-22). Running on Lombard Powerbook G3. No add-ons or plugins installed (this is after I completely removed Firefox and all dependencies shown and then re-installed just the Firefox package).

I get this as well in
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050908 Firefox/1.4

but only if browser.preferences.instantApply is set to true

Still reproduceable on latest trunk.

[Supernova00 (supernova00)]

Sorry for bugspam, meant to change everything all at once.

I thought there was another bug for this that I was CC'ed on/voted on but I can't located it so this may also be a dupe.

I confirmed this bug.

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20060524 Minefield/3.0a1

Now all works fine.

> Now all works fine.

So you had a certain way to reproduce?
Because I don't think the description is accurate. At least I think it happened randomly to me.

[Pcvrcek (pcvrcek)]

I had problem describe in this bug with old Firefox Trunk builds. Problem wasn't randomly reproduce with Firefox - it always was when I choose "Customize" and next "Done". With latest Firefox Trunk there is no problem like this for me.

[Ryanvm (ryanvm)]

I was seeing the problem on recent trunk builds, but I haven't seen it since resetting my prefs/toolbars in safe mode.

The bug occurs often when you open, drag one item from toolbar, and close "Customize Toolbar Dialog" quickly.

[Tbertels+bugzilla (tbertels+bugzilla)]

From bug 344469, it's seems that it's reproduceable with the extension "Joga Companion" from Google.
I can add that it's also reproduceable with the extension "Google Browser Sync" 1.2.20060911.3 (from Google too).

[Email-kerrith (email-kerrith)]

This bug happens for me too. Right click the menubar, Customize... close/done and the menubar is disabled/greyed out. Happens everytime. I have 1.5.0.7 and Google Browser Sync installed.

"ditto" comment #13:
This bug happens for me too. Right click the menu bar> Customize...> close/done
and the menu bar is disabled/greyed out. Happens every time. I have Minefield 3.0a1 (and doing nightly updates)

A "restart" resets the menu bar to functioning.

[Tony Houghton (h-realh)]

I'm experiencing this problem in Iceweasel 2.0.0.1 for Debian Linux i386 but only if I drag buttons around while the Customize dialog is open.

[Tony Houghton (h-realh)]

FWIW I'm using the Web Developer Toolbar and User Agent Switcher plugins, but the bug still occurs even when they're disabled.

I can confirm it for Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux ppc; en-US; rv:1.8.1.4) Gecko/20061201 Firefox/2.0.0.4 (Ubuntu-feisty). I found this bug upstream and linked it.

[Supernova00 (supernova00)]

I have not seen this in a long, long time. Resolve WFM?

[Tony Houghton (h-realh)]

Looks OK to me now too (2.0.0.6 Debian Linux amd64).

[Supernova00 (supernova00)]

Resolving WFM, reopen if someone on a current trunk build can reproduce.

[Pedro-pedropalhoto (pedro-pedropalhoto)]

I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.9 on Mac OS X 10.4.9. The All-in-one Sidebar v0.7.1 extension (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1027) is what's causing me the described problem. I can add that all the Google Firefox extensions aren't influencing the result.

With more or less the same set of extensions I have installed on Gentoo, Ubuntu and Windows XP machines, the All-in-one sidebar is not producing this.

I am closing this bug since both Feisty and Firefox 2 are EOL. If anyone can reproduce with Firefox 3 or later, please report a new bug. Feel free to report any other issues you may find.
