201565 - Mozilla starts to recursively open new windows if mozilla is chosen as viewer of the file

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 167320

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Milan Hodoscek]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030326
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030326

I wanted to see the contents of a x.tex file on some directory while browsing it
with the mozilla. When asked for open it with I selected mozilla as a viewer of
the file. After the click of OK mozilla starts to open new windows endlessly
until it is quitted. It is somewhat similar to the #195030 bug, but the file can
be any latex file so this has nothing to do with javascript or <embed>...

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. file://home/milan/x.tex
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Mozilla starts to open new empty windows over and over endlessly (I waited at
most 10 new windows) until quit is hit.

Expected Results:  
Just open the file in the same window or only one new.
