296203 - new tabs don't load in the background when you saved in the option->advanced (only es-AR)

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[Esteban Mendoza]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; es-AR; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; es-AR; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

In the option->advanced window there's an option where you can tell firefox to
load the new tabs in the background or not. The bug is in the checkbox, because
if you click the checkbox(meaning that you want to load the tabs in the
background) the new tab don't open in the background. Instead, if you uncheck
the option and save the preferences, it will now open the new tabs in the
background.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to options->advanced
2.Check the option "Open links in the background" (or something like that) and
save the options

Actual Results:  
Don't load the new tab in the background

Expected Results:  
Load the new tab in the background

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce

(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
