Details

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030516 Mozilla Firebird/0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030516 Mozilla Firebird/0.6

When loading a page with a dialog box, if one opens a new tab while the page in
the old tab is still loading, the page will take the cursor focus away, so
anything typed shows up in the dialog box in the old tab, rather than the URL
bar of the new tab.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Type "http://mail.yahoo.com" in the url bar and hit enter
2. Quickly press Ctrl+t to open a new tab
3. Type "hello world"
Actual Results:  
"hello world" appears in the Yahoo ID field in the first tab.

Expected Results:  
"hello world" should appear in the url bar for the new tab.

I believe this bug is OS and version independent, I recall having seen it before
on other machines (running different OSes and different versions of Mozilla).
Confirmed on WinXP Moz 2003080304.

I think this is more suited to Tabbed Browsing.
