18146 - apprunner crashes when new window opened and attempt to switch

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 15946

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, defect, P3)

Description

[Orion Richardson]

The program crashes when I click on the "Mozilla" tab at the bottom after
opening two browser windows.  Also, when there is only one window, the following
error message prints out in the apprunner DOS window.

   JavaScript Error: TypeError: tipElement has no properties
   URL:
   file:///E|DOWNLOAD/NETSCAPE.../bin/chrome/navgator/content/default/tooltip.js
   LineNo: 23

So, to reproduce:

   1. Open a new navigator window
   2. Click on "mozilla" button on the bottom twice
   3. It crashes

I'm using WinNT 4.0 Server w/ Service Pack 5

claudius, try to reproduce.  If still occurring, send over to javascipt team to
investigate.

This is very likely not a JavaScript engine bug.  The fact that our UI is now
written in JavaScript means that the errors or problems with many components
will now appear as JavaScript errors.  Best practice when reporting these errors
is to find out the module of the component that generated the error, and assign
the bug there.

Looks like this tweaks some unimplemented aspect of tooltips.  tipElement shows
up in LXR as being in tooltip.js; despot reports this file belongs to XPApps.
Reassigning there...
