It doesn't matter on which tab you click - the URL is loaded in the current tab, so it is useless. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open more than one tab and have ContentLoadURL on 2. Put URL in clipboard 3. Middle-click on a tab Actual Results: The URL was loaded in the current tab Expected Results: Closed the tab I think it also appears in Mozilla Navigator
Somewhat related to bug 216899. However, it was decided in bug 171132 not to do this. I don't particularly agree with this decision (see also bug 216861 comment 3) but there you go. Duping against bug 171132 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 171132 ***
