My bloviated meandering follows what Sailfish graced us with on
12/22/2011 12:50 PM:
When I click on notification icons on Facebook's top navigation bar,
it doesn't display the drop-down list in SM2.6 but works fine in
Firefox 9.0. Similarly, selecting the Home drop down icon displays the
list but is almost impossible to select the "Loggoff" item.
Anyone else noticing this problem?
I just re-installed SM2.5 and confirmed that it works well with FB, too.
So, this seems to be a SM2.6-only issue.
I've found what changed from SM2.5 to SM2.6 to cause this problem. I had
added the following entry to my prefs.js file a few years back to close
a security hole:
user_pref("capability.policy.default.Window.onunload", "noAccess");
More:

It's not clear why Facebook would be invoking the window "onunload"
handler when clicking its navigation icons nor why this pref override
worked fine prior to SM2.6 but once I removed this entry, the problem
went away. Any insights about the circumstances for this would be
appreciated.
Anyway, I'm adding this update in the event that others may find it useful.
