81378 - if Last Page Visited in prefs, New Nav Window opens IFRAME from the current page

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 58613

(Core Graveyard :: History: Global, defect)

Description

[Luke Morey]

I'm using latest nighty with Windows 2000 Professional SP1.

- if preferences are set to display Last Page Visited when Navigator is started
- and the current page contains an IFRAME
- then File - New Navigator Window will open the IFRAME within the current page,
not the current page.

e.g. I noticed this while using a Hotmail account.
- http://www.hotmail.com/
- log in
- while your inbox is showing, File - New Navigator Window
- the new window will only show the ad banner

over to History.  I'm really not sure who should get this but I'm guessing that
when we start with "last page visited" it is pulled from the end of global
history and perhaps global history is storing the iframe instead of the parent
document?  Please correct me and send this to the appropriate owner. THanks.
