864563 - "Flash crashed" reload page button reloads current page, not the one using flash

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Sebastian Benvenuti]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:20.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/20.0
Build ID: 20130412164157

Steps to reproduce:

Watching jblive.tv livestream on the flash player on the site while browsing on different firefox tabs/windows

I was using Firefox on Archlinux 64-Bit.
Relevant installed packages version are:
firefox-i18n-es-ar 20.0.1-1
flashplugin 11.2.202.280-1
linux 3.8.8-1
arch-firefox-search 0.8.2-5
firefox 20.0.1-2
firefox-adblock-plus 2.2.3-2



Actual results:

Flash crashed, the top appearing bar reads: "Flash crashed" with a "Reload Page" button on the current window/tab.
When I pushed the Reload Page button on that warning, not the one on the awsome bar, it reloads the page on the current window/tab


Expected results:

The reload action should have reloaded the page where flash crashed or not showed at all.
