my dropdown menus no longer working properly in 1.3

Since upgrading (actually installing from scratch and upgrading database) the dropdown menus have been working incorrectly, requiring 3 clicks. This problem appears wherever there is a dropdown, and because of this problem we switched all of our products to use radio buttons.

The Problem:
You have to click on a dropdown menu 3 times before you can actually choose something. On pages with multiple dropdowns selecting one thing after another behaves very strangely.

To see the problem, go to:
https://groovix.com/store/index.php?main_page=login
and try to choose a country from the country pulldown.

I know this has something to do with select:focus in the stylesheet, and commenting out these lines:
/input:focus, select:focus, textarea:focus {
background: #F0F8FF;}/
fixes it, but is this a bug with zen-cart or is some other aspect of my customizations causing this?
Has anyone else seen this problem?

As you have convreted to all radio buttons I can not see the problem. Might you be able to set up a test product witha a dropdown for viewing?

The problem still occurs in account setup, checkout fields, etc.

What happens if you switch to Classic Template?

What happens if you switch to Classic Template and rename:
/includes/templates/classic

to a temporary new name:
/includes/templates/classic_HIDE

Did that template you have loaded touch any of the core files or /templates/template_default files?

I setup a test at
http://groovix.com/storetest/
and the same problem occurs with:

1. the classic template
2. no template (when I move classic to classic_HIDE)
3. with the 1.3.0.2 update
   and I have not changed any of the core files, I did a complete diff, I only added my template and put some stuff in images.

Kobra, I also changed some product options to dropdowns so you can easily see the situation with multiple dropdowns: selecting one thing then trying to select another makes you lose the grab on the second dropdown, but only the first time.
For example: http://groovix.com/storetest/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2&products_id=32

I just did a complete zen cart install from scratch with all defaults, and the problem is still there:

Why is no one else seeing this? I just checked, and it does not appear to happen with internet explorer, but it definitely happens with current versions of Firefox. Over 50% of my traffic is from firefox, < 25% internet explorer. It also does not happen using Opera, so maybe it is a bug with Mozilla, or is the stylesheet/html specified in zen cart not standard? This only became a problem with versions > 1.3 of zen cart.

I'm having exactly the same problem. I'm using a modified version of the sage template, but as you suggest switching templates doesn't seem to affect this. I suppose I too could switch to radio buttons for the time being, but this is very annoying and I'd like to fix it for real... (since I frequently do my web development from a Linux box, using IE is not an option...)

The links on the Groovix sites work fine for me in FF and IE.

Perhaps you can post a link to your site's pages where this is happening?

You can see what I'm talking about here:

I tried several options. I noticed that the dropdowns work just fine under Windows (IE, Mozilla, and Firefox). Under Linux, the dropdowns work just fine under Konqueror, but require 3 clicks under Mozilla and Firefox. Weird...

The major change in 1.3 with respect to attributes was the addition of LABEL tag support.... as well as the addition of the focus settings in the stylesheet.

DrByte,
Does it really work well for you with firefox in the test store at
https://groovix.com/storetest/index.php?main_page=login
if you try to choose a country from the country pulldown?
I changed our main site at groovix.com/store/ a few weeks ago to comment out the part of the style sheet that caused the problem because it was too annoying.
As referenced below, this occurs with a completely default zen cart install.
Thanks,
Mike

The problem still exists in Mozilla under Linux...

Works fine first click in FireFox 1.5 on Windows. The right column of sideboxes looks funny though.
