Steps to reproduce:
1. Launch apprunner.exe
2. In the browser window's address field, enter a URL.
(Say, http://www.mozilla.org)
3. Open a new browser window.
4. In the new window's address field, type a different URL.
(Say, http://www.yahoo.com)
5. Observe that the first window comes to the foreground and its content updates
to be that of the page specified by the second URL.

Re-assigned to davidm@netscape.com, changed component to XPApps, and set target

David, is this "Window Manager" -type work?
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
assign.  This really shouldn't have anything do to with window management but
I'll investigate when I get a build that can load URL's again.
This is happening because all browser windows are sharing the same appcore. I am
told that the the XPtoolkit team will be fixing this for m5.

Resolution: --- → FIXED
marking fixed in the 4/19 build now that each window is getting its own appcore.
There appears to be a problem where the throbber activates in both windows but I
think it deserves its own bug.
Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
verified fixed in 5/12 builds. I don't see the throbber problem either.
