Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[kiwiplant]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5

status indicator keeps running in a tab for a page that otherwise appears to be fully loaded. The red stop toolbar button is dimmed, which would mean the page has loaded. The "spinning" load in progress icon in the upper right of firefox is also stopped. The "spinning" icon in the tab keeps running.  Not sure how to reproduce it. The address shown in the address type-in area is not correct.

Seems to happen often with http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=43611

Reproducible: Sometimes

This is turning out to render Firefox almost unusable.  Having to jump through hoops just to use the browser in a normal way.
