335173 - Open in Tabs does not open all bookmarks in that folder if I have one tab open, and select "cancel" when Camino asks me if I want to navigate away from the original tab

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Camino Graveyard :: Tabbed Browsing, defect)

Description

[KCBurton]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.8.0.1) Gecko/20060214 Camino/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.8.0.1) Gecko/20060214 Camino/1.0

I have a toolbar group called "Email" which has 4 bookmarks.

I have a blog on Blogger.  If I have a blog edit tab open, and then click "open in tabs" in my "Email" toolbar group, Camino will ask "Are you sure you want to navigate away from this page," refering to the Blogger tab.  I click cancel, because I want the 4 tabs to open separately.  Instead of opening 4 tabs, Camino only opens 3 tabs.  It doesn't open the first bookmark in the "Email" toolbar folder.  It doesn't matter which bookmark is listed first.  It always fails to open the first in the list, and correctly open the last 3 in the list.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a bookmark bar folder with several bookmarks inside.
2. Open a tab.  It must be a web page such that Camino will ask if you want to navigate away from it.  I'm not sure what type of web page that is.
3. Attempt to open the bookmark bar folder with the "Open in Tabs" option.
4. When Camino asks if you want to navigate away from the page, click "Cancel"

Actual Results:  
After clicking cancel, Camino opens a number of tabs equal to the number of bookmarks in the bookmark bar folder, less one.  For example, if I have 5 bookmarks in the folder, it will only open 4 bookmarks.

Expected Results:  
I would expect Camino to open all of the bookmarks listed in the bar folder

I'm using a MacBook Pro(Intel) computer, if that helps at all.

Also, an easy workaround is just to add a duplicate bookmark into the bookmark bar folder.

If I understand correctly, this is working as expected.  You've cancelled a page load requested for the first bookmark by clicking cancel on the dialogue in the existing tab, so that tab remains with the existing page (Blogger), while bookmarks 2-4 load in (new) tabs.  (If you had 4 Blogger tabs open and chose cancel for all of their dialogues, then none of the bookmarks would load.)

If you hold down cmd when selecting "Open in Tabs", it will spawn all new tabs, opening the 4 bookmarks in 4 new tabs and leaving your existing tab (Blogger) alone.

Camino has no such message, so apparently Blogger is doing some onbeforeunload JavaScript to throw the warning.  As Smokey said, this behaves correctly; Camino is trying to load four tabs in place over your current tabs, and you are explicitly canceling the loading of one of those pages through Blogger's JavaScript.  Tab groups are like normal bookmarks in that they replace by default, and if you want them opened in new tabs you need to use the command key or the "Open in new tabs" context menu item.
