Bug 328053 [Browser] After clicking certain links, mouse/key events are not sent anymore
Reported: 2010-10-18 13:03:20 | Status: resolved fixed

Build Identifier: SWT N20101017-2000 When adding input events to trigger certain actions, they stop working after a link calling a JS action is clicked. This was tested with a recent nightly build and 3.6, both have the issue. I only tried with IE. For some users, this can be very problematic. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a Browser with mouse/key listeners. 2. invoke a link in the form <a href="javascript:void(0)"> or <a href="javascript:alert('a text')"> 3. Click/type in the browser: events are not sent anymore.
