Default 1998 Civic.... Is this correct operation of the locks?

I can't lock all four doors with the switch. The driver's side door stay up Now if I take the key and do it from the outside with the door closed it will go down. As far as that goes just turning the driver's side from the outside will put all of them down regardless. Is this a safety feature so you don't lock your keys in the car? Just trying to find out before I rip into the door.

If you try to lock the drivers door (as well as all the others) when the driver door is open, the driver door will not lock (this is normal). Like ^he^ said, hold the handle (on the door panel) open, and press lock at the same time and the drivers door (and the 3 others) should lock.
