(SeaMonkey :: Location Bar, defect)

Description

[Bob Jones]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.0rc2) Gecko/20020512 Netscape/7.0b1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.0rc2) Gecko/20020512 Netscape/7.0b1

When I put "www.winsite.com" into the URL address bar and press ENTER, Moailla
1.1   disappears and appears to have spontaneously closed. It is completely gone
and does not show up as a running process nor on the Taskbar. This happens
regardless of whether I type the URL into the address bar or enter it as a
bookmark, the exact same bookmark that serves to properly call the URL in
Netscape 4.78, 6.02, or 7PR1.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Reboot computer running WinXP and load Mozilla 1.1b
2.Type 'www.winsite.com' into address (URL) bar
3.Press ENTER

Actual Results:  
Mozilla disappears and screen shows only the desktop

Expected Results:  
Should have called and loaded WINSITE

Other than installing my email and portal, Mozilla is as installed from the
installer.exe file

Adrian: Do you have Open unrequested windows unticked?

Comment 5

[Jason Bassford]

WFM - 2002082508 trunk / XP.  (FWIW: I have "Open unrequested window" unticked.)

Comment 6

[Sam J. Fleet]

Sound like the javascript is using the "window.close" behavior and poof, the
browser closed.  Haven't looked at the code yet.

Comment 7

[Adrian Ulrich]

Ian:

'Open unrequested windows' is disabled

if i enable it, it still wfm with 20020826

Comment 8

[Michael Lefevre]

WFM with 2002110408/trunk/win2k.  I guess this was an issue with the javascript
closing the wrong window - that shouldn't be able to happen with newer versions
of mozilla.

reporter (Bob): can you reproduce this bug with a recent build of mozilla (for
example, 1.2beta)? if so, please comment again with details. if not, please
resolve this bug as WORKSFORME. thanks.

no response from reporter for >30 days, resolving WORKSFORME.

reporter: if you can reproduce this bug with a recent build of mozilla (for
example, 1.2.1), please reopen this bug and give details. thanks.
