1003988 - window.open strange behavior with tabs api

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 993015

(Add-on SDK Graveyard :: General, defect, P1)

Description

[m.coenca]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_9_2) AppleWebKit/537.75.14 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/7.0.3 Safari/537.75.14

Steps to reproduce:

2 cases
1) I inject via pageMod [*] a script in top tabs that calls window.open to open a foo_window

2)I inject via tab.attach() the script in the tabs on events "ready", "open" only if New Tab, and ActiveTab only if about:empty (to get the first empty tab) that calls window.open to open a foo_window



Actual results:

1)-foo_window receive the injected script as well 
-foo_window appears in the sdk tabs list BUT i cannot use activate() on it (as i think it is a DOM window instead of a xul ?) but i can use reload() on it..

2)-foo_window receive the injected script the moment i close it...
-foo_window does NOT appears in the sdk tabs list.


Expected results:

1) and 2) : foo_window should be referenced in tabs, receive the injected script and i should be able to make it foreground by using .activate()

I think it is related to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=993015 but my first bug and I'm starting extension dev so I'm not sure :)
