User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030525 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030525 If all windows are minimized, when opening a new window the home page will not be loaded. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: (0. Make sure you have Preferences set to load home page in new windows. Close all windows open in Mozilla.) 1. Open a new Navigator window. 2. Minimize this window. 3. Open a new Navigator window. Actual Results: The home page selected in Preferences is not loaded in the window; the window remains blank. Expected Results: The home page selected in Preferences should be loaded in the window. Please note that the minimized window MUST be a Navigator window. In other words, if you have only a Chatzilla window minimized, opening a new Navigator window WILL load the home page. I'm using the latest nightly for Mozilla 1.4b (see User Agent). This is the first time I've noticed this bug. It did NOT exist (to my knowledge, anyway) in the 1.4b branch.
wfm using build 2003052508 on Win2k, perhaps MacOSX specific ?
Yes, this is Mac OS X specific. Something to do with windows being in the Finder's dock.
Actually... I can confirm this bug (sora) with winXP 2003052508. If I minimize all navigator windows, but leave mozilla mail open and press ctrl+N in mozilla mail, a new navgator window opens with a blank page. If I do ctrl+N in navigator, a new window with my homepage opens.
Confirmed using FizzillaMach/2003-05-25-03-trunk. Reassigning to XP Apps: GUI Features.

Summary: Home page not loaded in new window. → New window doesn't show home page when all windows are minimized to Dock
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030607 This bug no longer appears in the latest trunk (at least with the Mach-O build). It may have been resolved in a previous nightly, but I haven't checked it up until now.
