Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: Address Bar, defect)

Description

[Jack Brown]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.5) Gecko/20091102 Firefox/3.5.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.5) Gecko/20091102 Firefox/3.5.5

When I click the back page button on my Logitech MX-1000 laser mouse and I have multiple windows open and/or tabs, the action no longer works. It always seems to open the "find" window in the lower left hand corner of the browser however. Only by closing down the browser(Firefox 3.5.5) and reopening does it seem to work again but reverts eventually back to the above bug

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Using back button to view last pages in browser
2.Open links in new windows and/or add additional tabs
3.Try to click the back button on my MX1000 laser mouse and this function becomes inoperative yet opens the "find" window in the lower left hand corner of the browser
Actual Results:  
see above

Expected Results:  
Back button on mouse stops working and gives me the "find" window instead

just opened the last page viewed like it does in IE8
