160258 - Cannot open new window from Dock after closing windows

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 90823

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Aubin Paul]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.1b) Gecko/20020730
BuildID:    2002073008

A minor issue crops up with Mac OS X.

If you close the main Mozilla Navigator Window by clicking the red "close
window" button in the interface, you cannot open a new window by clicking on the
dock icon. You can, however, open a new window using the File->New->Navigator
Window, this is a little contrary to the behaviour of most Mac OS X applications. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Mozilla on Mac OS X
2.Click on the Red "Close Window" button in the Navigator Window but do not quit
Mozilla; at this point, the app is still running in the dock, but no Navigator
Windows are visible.
3. Click on the Dock Icon
4. Wait

Actual Results:  Nothing happens; rather than opening a new Navigator Window,
the Dock Icon ignores the user. 

Expected Results:  When you click on the Dock Icon, and no Navigator Windows are
open, a new Navigator Window should open on the Desktop. 

This is a Mac OS X and Mozilla specific issue; it does not happen in Chimera.
