not a problem when access from menu or shortcut. occurs on all 3 platforms: linux, comm: 2000-01-20-08 winNT, comm: 2000-01-20-08 mac, moz: 2000-01-20-08 to repro: 1. go to a page with frames, eg, http://www.tcp-ip.or.jp/~s-iga/ 2. [need to click to make sure you have focus, bug 9701] 3. bring up context menu, select Select All result: nothing happens: nothing is highlighted. expected: content should become highlighted in the given frame.

Sarah -- can you try displaying the frame in a separate window and see if you can select the data?

(actually, you'll probably find that Select All doesn't work on any page, frames or no)

great -- then Simon this one is for you, marking m14, hopefully you can take a look by end of the milestone

I hooked up Select All and Copy in the browser context menu, and they should be properly enabled/disabled, and work now (even in frames!)

tested with opt comm bits [2000021808], and it works fine on mac. however, it still doesn't work on winNT or linux. i've added a sample URL above for testing. reopening.

Based on the XP differences here, perhaps saari or hyatt could have some input. What might make things different on the different platforms? The code is all XP.

Simon, I'm taking this bug temporarily at least. I see popups on windows stealing focus (the NS_DEACTIVATE, NS_ACTIVATE messages comming across the stdout). I fixed this on MacOS, and we thought it was fixed on Windows a long time ago, but maybe not.

Ack, that isn't the problem, not on linux at least... tossing back. But, on linux, Select All *does* enable the copy operation. So, I suspect that it is working, but selection just isn't drawing. Same thing on Windows. Now why it draws on those two platforms fromt the toplevel menu but not the popup is a mystery to me

I did check to see if it was a redraw problem, and it does not appear to be (unless the Select all happens, and is instantly removed). I tried moving a window off the screen and back, and the selection still didn't show up.

this sounds like a focus problem; reassign to saari Maybe the selection isn't being built properly?

I'm actually going to reclose this one, since a separate bug (bug 28508) has been opened on the PP issues. Note that you can't verify this until 28508 is fixed.

works fine on mac... verifying this one.
