(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Marco]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030521 Mozilla Firebird/0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030521 Mozilla Firebird/0.6

After closing all the browser windows and opening a new one, the latter remains
inactive: typing a URL in the address bar, selecting a bookmark or clicking an
icon in the Bookmarks Toolbar yelds no effect. 

A second new window works as expected.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Firebird. An (active) window is opened
2. Close the window
3. Open a new window (via command-N or the menu)
4. Request a document

Actual Results:  
nothing

Expected Results:  
The requested document should load

My start page is about:blank, not sure if this is related though.

Confirming, only happens if MozFB is set to start with blank page.

If it's been fixed, it's only partial.  After closing all windows and opening a
new one, I can use the URL bar properly, but clicking on bookmarks in the
bookmarks bar (for example) has no effect.  0.6.1+-20030830.

Whoops, that's not entirely correct.  Even the URL bar doesn't work after the
last window is closed if the home page is set to about:blank.

I think this and <a href=http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=206752>Bug
206752</a> are the same issue.

i have the same problem, with all builds i have tested. but i found an
interesting fact. after closing all windows, the first new window never works.
but when i open  2 new windows by pressing command-n very fast, they both don't
work! 

i have to wait a second before openening a second window that is fully operable.

i have goole toolbar installed. this tool works with all non functional windows.
after closing all windows, opening a new window, goole toolbar works perfect.
but bookmarks, urls, ... don't.

Testing with 20031006 (Firebird/0.7+/jtalkington-nightly) this bug seems to have
mutated: the first new window is still inactive, but:

- the Bookmarks Toolbar now appears completely blank 
- clicking the "Home" button loads http://www.mozilla.org/products/firebird/
(even though my start document is about:blank)

As before, subsequent new windows behave correctly.

Comment 17

[Ben Polidore]

The first new window is active for me no matter what homepage I have, but the
bookmarks toolbar doesn't work.  I click the buttons, and there is just no response.

This still isn't quite right.

I'm using 0.7

[Wayne Woods]

Fixed 20031024 Firebird/0.7+ (see bug 223331). Needs to be set as fixed or duped
to that bug.
