I know this was reported before version 1 was released but I was purposely
holding back releasing my website until this version came out. Bugzilla said
this had been fixed but the problem still exists in the new version.
window.open(urll,"_search") still opens a new browser window.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load http://indigo.ie/~pattison/search/
Actual Results:  
new window opens with search bar in it.

Expected Results:  
sidebar should open with search bar in it.

I may have changed the version on the internet by the time you get to it cause
it's not working properly. Here's the site as I intend it to be.

Sorry, the bug I was looking at was
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=223735 and I thought it was fixed
for the test case, but it was the test case itself that was fixed.

My apologies.
