(Whiteboard: [nsbeta2-])

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Internet Explorer BuildID: 2000072520 The home button stops functioning if the home page is set to an ip-adress with an custom port. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set the home page of mozilla to something like 127.0.0.1:10106 (or whereever you have access to a webserver which does not use the default port 80. It seems that you have to enter the ip-address. Using the DNS name works. 2. Stop Mozilla 3. Restart Mozilla 4. The homepage loads. 5. Press home on the toolbar or use the home menu item. Actual Results: 6. The status bar displays "Connecting to [ip]..." 7. Nothing happens. (The browser doesn't do redraws anymore). (8. You may go to the URL-bar and press enter to reload the homepage) Expected Results: Pressing the home-button should load the start page. Looks to me as if there is a problem with DNS vs. ip names - like if some components don't recognize that 127.0.0.1 is an ip-address and not a DNS name. But I may be wrong in this point. BTW.: There is a related error - which might be just a symptom of the same bug, so I don't file a separate report. If the startpage is set to localhost:port AND port is not the standard port AND there is no web-server running at localhost:port _then_ Mozilla tries to connect to keyword.netscape.com.

Is this still a problem?
-> browser general. This needs to go to whoever tests the home button.
