I've been monitoring, and as as near as I can ascertain its a combination of flash adverts and tabs. When there is flash content and I deliberately give it focus, ctrl-W stops working. While thats annoying as heck, its not the primary issue here. So what I think is happening is that when working with many tabs, somehow a flash advert gets focus on a tab, and ctrl-W then stops working until you click on the page outside the advert. I am *totally* sure I've not been tabbing or clicking into the adverts though. -Rob -- GPG key available at: http://www.robertcollins.net/keys.txt. -- could not close window with ctrl-W until I clicked on the background https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/83229 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 83229] Re: could not close window with ctrl-W until I clicked on the background
I have experienced this. If I have loads of tabs open, It has to be more than will fit on the tab bar, so the arrow appears at the end on the right. THen when I start hitting Ctrl + W to start closing them, they will close successfully, until there are enough to just fill the tab bar. Ctrl + W stops working unless I click inside the window, its as if it loses focus when the previous tab closes. -- could not close window with ctrl-W until I clicked on the background https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/83229 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 83229] Re: could not close window with ctrl-W until I clicked on the background
I note this behavior on some pages that have flash content. It's as if the flash applet has the focus and the parent tab (window) doesn't see the CTRL+W keypress. In addition CTRL+W doesn't work if the page has not yet loaded. For example I have a bookmark folder that has a number of sites listed, I open all of them in tabs (only about 6 pages) then read them and close them as I go with CTRL+W. If i get to a tab that is having a problem due to the server not responding, CTRL+W does nothing. I have to press ESC to stop that tab from attempting to load, then press CTRL+W to close it. I was going to report this as a separate bug, but it seems related to this one. -- could not close window with ctrl-W until I clicked on the background https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/83229 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

According to: http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do;jsessionid=e14182282910a2cf8ebead9e7f36?bug_id=6542261 this behavior is by design in FF 2.0+ if the always show tabs option is set on. Apparently there is some debate over the desirability, but it is intentional. The workaround (disabling that option) is far less obnoxious. -- could not close window with ctrl-W until I clicked on the background https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/83229 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Are you sure firefox was the window with the focus? to use ctrl+w it needs to be the focused window. sounds like you had to click the emtpy space becasue the firefox window wasnt the focused window. Please make sure thats what it is. I am not able to confirm this on edgy's firefox feistys firefox nor my built firefox 3.0 alpha. ** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Mozilla Team Status: Unconfirmed = Needs Info -- could not close window with ctrl-W until I clicked on the background https://launchpad.net/bugs/83229 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 83229] Re: could not close window with ctrl-W until I clicked on the background
I usually encounter this when I have a range of tabs open and want to close them (but make sure to check if I really don't need one of them still). My native window manager is ion3 and browser version is Debian-2.0.0.1+dfsg-2. I'm fairly sure it also happens on windows though, I'll get back to you when I've reproduced that and am entirely sure. -- could not close window with ctrl-W until I clicked on the background https://launchpad.net/bugs/83229 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
