701314 - Panorama mixes up page thumbnails inside the same tab group

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 659278

(Firefox Graveyard :: Panorama, defect)

Description

[oblio]

Attachment: Thumbnails copied from neighbouring site (http://www.writemoretests.com/2011/09/agile-scrum-delivering-broken-software.html).

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:7.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/7.0.1
Build ID: 20110928134238

Steps to reproduce:

1. Launched Firefox.
2. Loaded lots of different tabs. 
3. Opened Panorama (Ctrl-Shift-E).
4. Closed Firefox.
5. Launched Firefox again.
6. Opened Panorama again.


Actual results:

Some of the thumbnails are messed up - i.e. a thumbnail belonging to a specific site seem to be used for several sites.
This makes Panorama much less useful, since you cannot see at a quick glance what a specific site is doing, for example.
The thumbnail is fixed if you load that site (impractical for lots of tabs).


Expected results:

Every site should have its correct thumbnail. If the page has not been loaded after restarting Firefox, show the last available thumbnail from *that page* or a blank page.

That's a duplicate of bug 659278 and should be fixed in Firefox 8. You can just update your browser as Fx 8 was released on Tuesday :)

Nice: You are not authorized to access bug #659278. 

I upgraded my browser at home and I forgot I didn't upgrade my browser at work, sorry about that :)
Seems to be fixed, I'll close the bug.
