138834 - Upon closing tab, revert to last-used tab

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 105722

(SeaMonkey :: Tabbed Browser, enhancement)

Description

[Steven Chan]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.0rc1)

BuildID:    2002041711

After opening a whole bunch of tabs, I may close the last tab shown (physically
located farthest right). When I do this, it takes me to the second-to-the-last
tab (now physically located farthest right). I would like Mozilla to take me to
the last-USED tab instead.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open mozilla.org.
2. Open a new tab cnn.com.
3. Go to the mozilla.org tab.
4. Open a new tab from a link on that page (by middle-clicking on one of their
links, depending on your preferences). Such as, Downloads.
5. You now have three tabs open in this order: mozilla, cnn, and Downloads. You
should be on the Downloads tab. Click the "Close Tab" X button on the right of
the tabs list.
6. You will be taken to CNN, not Mozilla.
