The title bar of the browser always displays the name of the last tab that has
been opened, even if the last tab opened has subsequently been closed.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open first web page in first tab
2. Open second web page in a new tab
3. Go to first tab - Browser's title bar will still have the title of second tab
4. Close the second tab - Browser's title bar will still have the title of the
second tab even though the second tab has been closed!

Actual Results:  
Browser is still working, but the title bar displays the wrong title for the
active tab.

Expected Results:  
The title bar should display the CURRENT active tab's webpage title.
Do you have any extensions installed?

Oh crickey, yes, i have quite a few actually...i just tried it with a fresh
installation of firefox and the bug is not there. It must be one of the
extensions. I'll have to look into this further.
Meanwhile seeing as the clean install does not have the problem this bug should
be closed i suppose.
Sorry for the problems. I'll post to the maker of the offending extension when i
find it.
