From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0rc2) Gecko/20020510 BuildID: 2002051009 Here is a link I was given to download a paper at Microsoft. Clicking on it brings up a JavaScript window where you need to click "OK" to accept the copyright. Doing so loads up the _LAST_ page you were on, and does not bring up the paper. This works in Konqueror. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: As above Actual Results: Reloads last page viewed Expected Results: Load page I wanted

combination of two factors: 1) bad browser sniffing: if ((document.layers) || (document.all)) { if (document.layers) { [do stuff] } else { [do other stuff] } } else { [do more stuff] } 2) I bet you've got popups blocked. The javascript tries to open the file you're after in a popup window. It worked fine for me after I turned off popup blocking (Win98SE, RC2) Confirming, ->Tech evangelism to get the browser sniffing fixed

Yes, I have "Open Unrequested Windows" unchecked, but "Open a link in a new Window" _is_ checked. I would have assumed that this would allow such a link to work correctly -- it usually does.

The "OK" button is in an alert box, not within the page. The popup is therefore triggered by inline javascript in the page body which executes as the page loads. As I understand it, "Open link in new window" allows windows to be opened if the javascript is being executed as the result of a user action within the page itself (alert boxes are kinda special)
