165697 - second URL open in new tab or new window

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core :: DOM: UI Events & Focus Handling, defect)

Description

[Kosta]

When you click on some URL (link) mozilla 1.1 final opens the URL , but during
opening previous page is still on the screen - so if I click on some other link
using right mouse button I sow menu of right mouse button but I CAN'T open link
underneath becose it is not implemented - THIS EVENT TO OPEN SECOND LINK IN
OTHER (NEW) TAB OR WINDOW IS REJECTED.
So can you fix this bu - IE doesn't have such rejecting on events and using IE I
can open any link(s) in other window(s)
BTW this BUG is from a lot of previous versions of Mozilla including 1.0 and 1.1
final.
Have fun and eazy debugging.

Thanks to my slow connection, transition from one page to the "next" (after
l-click a link) it's slow and I'm a good timeframe to r-click at least one
(sometimes two) different links from the "old" page.

Kosta, could you describe some way to reproduce the problem, please? I try with
several sites/pages and always work (except for links to run a java applet but
Open in new window/tab never be an option).
