           Summary: Context menus on a QWebView can lock up
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows 7
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Qt
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: qt-info at nokia.com


This problem is reproducible with the browser demo that is part of the Qt demos.

Sometimes when a QWebView-based app runs a context menu in response to the user right-clicking over the webview, it can take absolutely ages for the menu to popup and run. This can be reproduced using the two files in the attachment(6575.htm and gedscape.css). Save these files in the same temp folder somewhere, then open the file 6575.htm with your Demo Browser. A family tree will appear. Try right-clicking over any of the names in boxes and you'll see the problem. The names are just simple <a> links to other web pages.

The html file contains quite a lot of absolutely positioned div elements. webkit has no problem rendering these and does a very good job and fast, but there is clearly a problem in there with context menus.
