Description
FireFox:
- Click somewhere inside the wysiwyg body to place the cursor somewhere in the text.
- Click on the Format dropdown arrow. The format dropdown appears, as expected.
- Click on the Format dropdown arrow. The format dropdown disappears, as expected.
- Click on the Format dropdown arrow as many times as you want; the dropdown never re-appears.
This also applies to the style-, font- and size dropdowns.
Also tested with nightly build today

Sorry, but I can't reproduce it. The behavior that I see on second click is as described in #347: the dropdown closes and immediately appears again.
Tested in Firefox 2.0.4 in Windows and Mac

It seems to affect the Linux version of Firefox only. I can see the bug occurring in Firefox 1.5.0.12 in CentOS 5.

The second click to the combo box shouldn't close the floating panel at all, and so the issue starts at the second click, not the third click - the third click is just repeating what happened at the second click.
The patch to #1514 seems to fix this at the first glance, but another problem props out: now the floating panel wouldn't close at the second click (which is correct). But if you clicked elsewhere after the second click, the panel wouldn't close. I'm rewriting #1514's patch to fix this ticket as well.

Forgot to say that you'll have to change the cursor position or use another function in the toolbar in order to reactivate the dropdown.
