174212 - Notify - options to open web page in a new tab

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 114314

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, enhancement)

Description

[Sébastien Delahaye]

(Using build 20021012 on w2k)

In the "Notify" tab of a bookmark's properties, there are currently 4 options:
[ ] Change the bookmark icon
[ ] Display an alert
[ ] Open web page in a new window
[ ] Play a sound

It would be nice if there was a fifth option (possibly just after the third):
[ ] Open web page in a new tab

Comment 1

[Asa Dotzler [:asa]]

my preferred summary for this bug report is "remove buggy bookmarks notification
code from Phoenix."

Comment 2

[David P James]

I didn't even know this existed... but yes, if new window is in there new tab
probably should be as well.

Btw, the entire dialog was kind of "blinky" on my 20021019 linux build.

Comment 3

[André Dahlqvist]

I agree with Asa, it has never worked very well and it is just slowing down the
opening of this dialog.

Comment 4

[André Dahlqvist]

Bug 117026 has a patch to remove these tabs, so I am marking this a duplicate of
that.

[Stefan Borggraefe]

This is not a dupe of bug 117026.

Bug 117026 is about removing the tabs from the bookmark properties dialog while
this enhancement request wants an option to open a changed website in a new tab
to be added in this dialog.

isn't this a dupe of Bug 114314?

Comment 7

[Mike Connor [:mconnor]]

Joe, yeah, I agree, this should be marked as a dupe for 114314
