Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 106927

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, defect)

Description

[[e-mail]]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.0.0+)

If you open many tabs for browsing then they eventually disappear off to the
right and you can't get to them. The X to close the tabs also disappears. When
the X disappears the scrollbars (if any) in the current tab also disappear.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Mozilla to a URL that requires scrolling eg
http://www.mozilla.org/quality/help/bugzilla-helper.html
2. Press CTRL-T 31 times (its all ok to this point on my 1024x768 screen - maybe
more times with higher res screen etc)
3. Have a look at the original tab (it should still have scrollbars). you should
also still be able to see the X to close the tab.
4. PRess CTRL-T and the X disappears. Open the original tab and the scrollbars
have gone.
5. Any further windows you open in tabs disappear to the right and you can't
access them.

Actual Results:  previously described

Expected Results:  scrollbars and X should remain
additional tabs should still be accessible via some form of expansion bar/button
