145464 - Switching tabs when a page is loading stalls the status bar's message

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 133250

(SeaMonkey :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[Håkan Waara]

Reproduced using RC2.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

1. Open a new, blank tab.
2. Type in a URL, for example http://www.foxnews.com/oreilly
3. When the page starts loading, switch to another tab.
4. When the page has finished loading, go back to the tab.

ACTUAL RESULTS:  the status bar still has "Transferring data from
www.foxnews.com..." in it, although the page finished loading a long time ago.

EXPECTED RESULTS:  the status bar should update even if I have another tab open.
