Details

This site executes 4 times/second the JS function
  window.open(g_strFilePath, "transad", "width=450,height=375,location=no,resizable=yes,status=0,scrollbars=yes");

this should cause the window to be reloaded, but it seems to be opening new windows.  Discovery
of extant windows by name seems broken in apprunner.

Can't reproduce this today. sidewalk.com seems to have changed its html, and
the sample code behaves as expected.
Marking Verified as WorksForMe per above comments.  Please use latest nightly 
build from: http://www.mozilla.org/binaries.html and reopen bug if is happens 
again.  Thanks!
