This patch do nothing with flash on many sites, but works on youtube. I tested it already. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to flashplugin-nonfree in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/263435 Title: Firefox cannot close tab (using Ctrl-w) when flash content is selected on page Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Confirmed Status in “firefox-3.0” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “flashplugin-nonfree” package in Ubuntu: Opinion Bug description: Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree Firefox cannot close tab (using Ctrl-w) or switch to next tab (using Ctrl-Tab) when flash content is selected on page. Steps to reproduce: 1) Open a new Tab 2) Go to a website with flash content (in this case youtube.com) 3) Selected the flash content by clicking on it (in this case click on play) 4) While the content plays, press a keyboard shortcut (in this case Ctrl-w to close the tab) Result: The shortcut is not registered by firefox, the tab remains open Expectation: The shortcut should be registered by firefox, the tab should close A good way of knowing that "selecting the flash content" is at the root of the problem: if you select a part of the page that is not flash content (in this case empty white space at the right or the left of the video) followed by Ctrl-W, the tab closes.
