This happens in both Firefox and chrome so it appears to be a system rather than an app problem. If I go to http://www.stern.de/kultur/humor/cartoons/galerie/1_gerhard-haderer/633437.html and click on Vergrossern, the cartoon pops up in larger format in a new window. In windows, I can resize this window. In Ubuntu, when I move the cursor to an edge to get the resizing icon and then left down to grab the side, the popup window disappears. Tried it several times and happens each time.
Ubuntu is definitely the best on the market bar none. Superb piece of work
Regards, Bill

Bill,
We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.
We would like to close this bug report as it refers to an versions of Ubuntu but before we do we are asking do you still see a problem related to the one that you reported?
If we do not hear from you the bug report will close itself in approximately 60 days time.
Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.
