Do you have a specific URL where you see this problem?

Seeing in Linux too, same build date. How peculiar.

Status --> New
OS --> All

Does it happen in Mozilla's latest nightly too? (it would be very special if it
didn't).

Added sample URL but it is reproducable with any framed page (make sure that you
don't right click an image since this context menu doesn't contain back/forward).

I'm seeing this in Firebird quite some time and it doesn't occur in Mozilla
(last build I tried was 200304025 nightly).

btw, status is still "unconfirmed"

Attachment: test case with frames

Open test case in new tab/window.

Oops, must have been the midair collision that I had that didn't put through the
status change.

Confirming for real.

Does not occur with a recent Mozilla nightly, only with Firebird.
