Attachment: ghostTabs.png

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; rv:2.0b4pre) 
Gecko/20100810 Minefield/4.0b4pre

Since some weeks I have changed max-width of inactive tabs 
and every thing was fine. 
But since few days I see ghost Tabs that hang around after I kill a Tab.


Steps:-
1. Add following to you userChrome.css

#main-window #navigator-toolbox .tabbrowser-tab:not([pinned])[selected="true"]{
  min-width: 250px  !important;
}


#main-window #navigator-toolbox .tabbrowser-tab {
  max-width: 145px  !important;
}


2. Restart Firefox (Gecko/20100810 Minefield)

3. Click new tab button to add few tabs

4. Switch tabs to see resizing effect of the tab.

5. In each tab navigate to some web pages

6. Now kill Tab one by one, leaving last

Result :
user see The tabs still there with out title 
see attached ghostTabs.png

Expected:
Tabs should be dead...


I dont know whether is this a issue with tab control, 
if so please reclassify...

This sounds a bit like bug 585417 - have you tried adding [fadein] (see bug 585417 comment #3)

work around, change CSS to
 #main-window toolbox#navigator-toolbox
    .tabbrowser-tab:not([pinned])[selected="true"]
 {
  min-width: 250px  !important;
 }

 #main-window toolbox#navigator-toolbox
  .tabbrowser-tab[fadein]
{
  max-width: 145px  !important;
 }

Dão,

Even only with following CSS, I see ghost Tabs.
bug 585417 is marked invalid, 
I wonder why that bug is marked invalid? 
Why I ask is even if we have WRONG CSS selector 
we should not see ghost Tabs 

#main-window #navigator-toolbox .tabbrowser-tab {
  max-width: 145px  !important;
}
