358549 - Double-click in Tab Bar creates 2 new tabs. Single-click does nothing.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 358231

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[Grant Robertson]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0

When I double-click in the empty space in the Tab Bar to the right of the tabs it creates 2 new tabs instead of just 1. For a second I thought that you had changed it so it only required a single click but no. A single click does nothing. Yes, I can still click on the new little button but I like the double-click feature. It is quicker and easier to do.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Double-Click in the empty space in the Tab Bar to the right of the tabs.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Two new tabs are created.

Expected Results:  
One new tab should be created.

Yes, as a matter of fact it is. And disabling the TabBrowser Preferences fixed the problem just as in that bug. Should I mark my bug as invalid or say it is still a bug but only when that addon is installed, or what?

Grant, yes invalid - because it's the extension author that needs to make the fix rather than the entity that is 'Firefox'.

How did you people find that other bug in the list? I tried several different searches and didn't find anything. What tips can you give to make finding already entered bugs easier, thus reducing dupes?
