130972 - Going into offline mode breaks tabs

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[Mikhail Zabaluev]

Steps to reproduce:
Load an HTML webpage that contains hyperlinks.
Switch to the Offline mode clicking on the icon at the right in the bottom bar.
Try to open a link in a new tab.

The tab stays empty and untitled. If you close this tab and switch back to the
Online mode, further attempts to open a link in a new tab make no effect.
Loading a new page or clicking on a link restores tab functionality.

Correction: subsequent opening in a new tab is disabled only for the link that
"failed" the first time. All other links work.

I cannot reproduce this bug in 20020421 Linux. Reporter
(David Polberger), please can you check to see whether this bug is still present
in a recent build (Moz1-RC1 or a new nightly build). If this bug does not occur
please can you resolve it worksforme.

mass-verifying WorksForMe bugs.

reopen only if this bug is still a problem with a *recent trunk build*.
