302635 - Unable to reorder tabs

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 179656

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, enhancement)

Description

[Tom Ekberg]

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

It would be nice to be able to reorder tabs.

I usually load up slashdot.com first. Then I open up some other tabs and go back
to slashdot. When I open a new tab from slashdot and close it I'm back on the
last tab, not slashdot. If I could move my slashdot tab to the end, which I
create a new tab there it would go back to slashdot when the new tab is closed.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open up > 2 tabs
2.Click and hold the mouse on the first tab and drag it after the third tab.


Actual Results:  
Nothing happens. The ordering of the tabs is unchanged.

Expected Results:  
The original tab ordering 1 2 3 should become 2 3 1.

Not a bug in Firefox 1.0.x dragging Tabs is only available via an extension. If
you need help using Firefox please use http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/
and http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=38 rather than bugzilla.

Actually this looks like a dupe of bug 179656, marking such. This will be
avaliable in firefox 1.5

I agree. Before posting this I scanned all of the bugs that had the word "tabs"
in it. Obviously I missed that one.

Because it was already marked as fixed, probably.

Almost. Bugzilla, at least for me, only shows 200 matches. With the status set
to "All", and the product set to "Firefox", there are > 200 matches for the
"tabs" search word. Bug 179656 doesn't show up. Sorting by the "ID" column
exposes it.
