User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.2.10) Gecko/20100914 Firefox/3.6.10 GTB7.1 ( .NET CLR 3.5.30729)

When I open [eXe] "eLearning XHTML editor" a web based elearning editor after
launching Firefox, [exe] launches as a Tab and I cannot open in pop-up window from within [eXe].

So If i wish to use both programs I browse with Opera and do my elearning editing with [eXe] through Firefox as I cant change the browser [eXe] uses.

I use latest Firefox version, I used to work smoothly in older versions

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. sart firefox normally,then
2. start eXe, try to open in pop-up window from the editor (e.g. add activity to the [eXe] page and try to insert media)
Actual Results:  
you can't open pop-up windows

Expected Results:  
Each use its own featured window as in older Firefox versions, sorry I can't
recall the version name.

Hi Ahmed, if you're still somehow seeing this on modern versions of Firefox, please re-open and we can take a look (though it would be helpful to get more steps to reproduce, including links or source to the eXe software you're using) - otherwise we're closing this 13 year old bug as INCOMPLETE.
