189695 - Asks for new user profile when opening up a new browser using the shortcut.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 122698

(SeaMonkey :: Startup & Profiles, defect)

Description

[Sam]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021212
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021212

The problem is that Mozilla always asks for a new user profile upon opening a
new session (new navigator window) through its' shortcut.  When I click on the
link on my Linux taskbar, I want it to go straight to my homepage, not ask me
for a new profile.  

The most convenient way to open a new browser session is to use the quick
launch. Mozilla gets confused about this.

There are also problems with this box I am typing in, seems word wrap doesn't
work correctly when a period is placed close to the end of a dialog box.  

Sometimes I'll type a sentence which ends close to the end of a box, like this. 

Double space does not take me to the next line; I have to hit return. 




Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a browser window
2. Click on the link to Mozilla to open up a second session
3.

Actual Results:  
The program asked me to enter a new user profile, and would not let me use my
current one.

Expected Results:  
To open up a new session without asking me anything about profiles.

Profiles should be able to be managed within Mozilla.

>new session (new navigator window
you get his only if you try to create an additional mozilla process/instance
A new window doesn't cause this.
