Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 76495

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030401

Cannot create a new tab with the keyboard shortcut cmd-t, but using the menu
equivalent (File -> New -> Navigator Tab) works fine.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Begin with two tabs open, A and B, and with the leftmost, A, tab active.
Close A tab, leaving you with only B open and with the tab bar hidden.
2. Open a new tab, C, by cmd-clicking a link in B. If this link fails to load
due to the connection to the web server times out, when you close B and view the
striped empty C with the Mozilla-logo indicating that the browser tries to load
the page you cannot open a new tab by using the keyboard shortcut for it
(cmd-t). However, you can use the menu option to create a new tab.
3.

Actual Results:  
The keyboard shortcut stopped working.

Expected Results:  
Accepted keyboard shortcuts as usual.

This frequently happens a versiontracker.com.

I have privoxy installed and enabled most of the time, but disbling privoxy does
not make any difference.

This could be a dupe of Bug 110718, which in the meanwhile has already been fixed.

Reporter, can you still reproduce this using recent builds?
