Menu2 leaves clicked item highlighted in FF/Mozilla

[cris@…]

For example in test_Menu2.html, go into a submenu and click on a menu item. This may be easiest to see if you _don't_ pick the first menu item.

Then bring up the context menu again. When the submenu opens up, in Mozilla/FF you will see the clicked node highlighted before moving the mouse over it.

This patch seems to resolve the issue.

I remember seeing this problem but now I followed your instructions above and I can't reproduce it. Is it still happening for you on the latest build?

Hi Bill,

The bug is still there today (March 6) in the tests on the Dojo web site. Go all the way down the menu tree and select "Four", then come back to the menu again.

What browser are you using?

I just tried the link below on Win2000 running FF 1.5.1 and IE 6.0. Didn't reproduce.

Maybe it's a timing issue. I clicked "four".

Hi Bill,

FireFox? 1.0.6, Mozilla 1.7.

Yes, that's the same URL. It's very reproducible on Windows and on Linux. Possibly some browsers fire mouseout events when hiding an element that has the mouse over it, but others don't. That could create a browser dependency like this one may be.

Fixed in rev 3232.
