I have decided to hide my Bookmarks Toolbar Folder.
While browsing between tabs. I noticed the windows were not displaying the
correct address in the address bar.

I don't know if this is an with the Bookmarks Toolbar Folder.
But I haven't been able to replicate it.
Reloading reloads the same page in the tab.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Hide Bookmarks Toolbar Folder
2. View several sites in tabs

Actual Results:  
Incorrect address in address bar.

Expected Results:  
Correct address of current viewing page in address bar.

I cannot reproduce this with the latest tinderbox build. But I had experienced
the same symptoms you are describing, though I was never able to reproduce it
consistently. It happens very rarely but if it does, the location bar sort of
freezes and the URL in the location bar does not change untill restart of Firefox.

Im reopening, I still get this occurence once and awhile, but It doesn't have
anything to do with the bookmark toolbar

[Michal Seliga]

i don't have anything with bookmark toolbar and i can see it quite often
i use tabbrowser preferences extension and i have it set to not open new windows
but only new tabs

and sometimes when i open new .html file from disc using doubleclick, and then
close it then this shown address will never ever change. i can type new address
and it will work but it will remain there until i change it manually again or
intil i restart firefox

btw i have firefox 1.0.7 and i run it on windows 2000 (if it may help)

WFM.  Extensions can cause this type of thing - try safe mode to see if that helps.
