190889 - opening new tab while the current page ist at a certain stage of loading doesn't function

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 110718

(SeaMonkey :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[Christian Mayr]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130

I realized that sometimes, if I want to open a new tab using CTRL-T doesn't
work. It apparently only occurs if the browser is busy loading the page, waiting
for some data (if I try fast pages, I couldn`t reproduce the problem).

It occurs AFTER the page title has been loaded and BEFORE the contents of the
page is displayed.

I think I even reproduced it on my linux system, but I'm not sure about this
one. Maybe someone could figure this out, or I'll add later.

Not sure if the problem lies within the "tabbed features", but maybe somewhere
in gecko?

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load a page that doesn't come up too fast
2. Hit CTRL-T IMMEDIATELY after the name of the webpage appears in the title
3. You have to try this sometimes, maybe.

Actual Results:  
No new Tab appears.

Expected Results:  
It should - of course - open a new tab. Whilst not beeing that bad, I think it
would be better and should be manageble to offer new tabs everytime.
