Example follows & is attached also. <html> <script> function test() { var w = window.open ("http://www.mozilla.org", "mozilla", "modal=yes"); alert ("if you see this alert before closing the opened window, your browser is buggy (or isn't Mozilla - which is even worse!). This should be fine in 1.2.1 & buggy in 1.3 (alpha -> final).") } </script> <input type=button onclick="test()" value="launch mozilla.org in a modal window (or not) - if you see an alert BEFORE closing the window, you have the bug."> </html> Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: see code snipit Actual Results: url is opened in a new window (good) alert immediatly shows (bad) - code continued to execute in the parent window. Expected Results: waited for the user to close the "modal" window prior to allowing the JavaScript to continue execution (the alert being shown) fine on 1.2.1 and MANY previous builds (I have been developing an application for a couple of years that uses this functionality and it has always worked before)
Please, check for previously reported bugs, specially with a release build all such "bugs" are already known. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 197351 ***
