Hi All,

    I am running ff 1.0.4 of w2k-pro, sp4.  I have my (tools, options, 
advanced) tab browsing set to "a new tab in the most recent window."

    I have noticed that certain links, when left (mouse) clicked, will toss 
up the yellow bar to block a pop up.  When I click on the yellow bar, I 
will get a "show" option.  When I click on the "show" link, I get another
yellow bar that now shows two "show" links.  (I never get to see the
link)

    An offending page would be:    http://oca.org/

Clicking on the "Feasts and Saints" link (javascript:;), will exhibit this 
behavior.  (Center clicking on the links gives a blank page.)

Many thanks,
--Tony

This is probably the same issue as your previous bug.

Try starting firefox in safemode.

Please test bugs with a trunk build if possible before filling.

Hi All,

   I downloaded firefox-1.0+.en-US.win32.installer.exe (2005-05-27-13-trunk).
I installed no extensions, themes, or plugins.

   I double checked that my tab and pop up settings were the same.  (Popups are
blocked and tabs are "a new tab in the most recent window.")

   Clicking on the link gets me the pop up of the correct page (no yellow
pop up bar).  Center clicking gets me a blank page.

   Oh mama is this release buggy!  Then again, that is why it is called "alpha"

You don't need to install them it will use your old profile hence why you were
asked to start in safe mode. Could you try starting in safe mode or create a new
profile.

> pop up bar).  

So its working as expected now hence why did you reopen this bug?

> Center clicking gets me a blank page.

Thats a seperate issue, as the bug page says you should only file one issue per
bug. This is because the links are java script links and this is the websites
fault, however this is a bug open to find a work around for issue.

As per the fact that the popup bar doesnt appear anymore closing wfm
