130060 - Changes to urlbar get lost when switching tabs

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 104778

(SeaMonkey :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[Ben Bucksch (:BenB)]

Reproduction:
1. Open 2 tabs.
2. Paste something into the urlbar. Do *not* press enter to load the new URL.
3. Switch to another tab.
4. Switch back to the tab where you pasted into the urlbar.

Actual result:
Your changes to the urlbar textfield are lost

Expected result:
Urlbar has the same state as it had when I left the tab.

Additional comments:
Similarily, if you open a new tab, the page is empty and the urlbar is (rightly)
empty, so you can easily paste a new url and load it. If you switch tabs betwen
opening a new one and pasting, you have "about:blank" in the urlbar, which you
have to delete before you can load the new url.
