Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 90823

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Jon McClintock]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020623 Debian/1.0.0-0.woody.1
Build Identifier: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/releases/mozilla1.3b/mozilla-mac-MachO-1.3b.dmg.gz

When Mozilla is loaded, yet there are no browser windows open, double-clicking on 
the Mozilla icon should open a new browser window. IE does this. Safari does this.
Mozilla should do this. The fact that Mozilla doesn't do this results in me 
getting berated by my wife for the computer being dumb. I tend to agree with
her, although I know a bit more about the source of the problem than she does. :)


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Mozilla.
2. Close all Mozilla browser windows.
3. Attempt to "launch" Mozilla again, by clicking on the Mozilla icon.


Actual Results:  
Notice that no new window is opened.


Expected Results:  
A new browser window should have opened.
