90255 - Popup windows revert to browser's home page.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 89691

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[D'Arcy Norman]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC; en-US; rv:0.9.2+) Gecko/20010710
BuildID:    2001071008

If a web page creates a popup window (like a target="_blank") it will open the
new window and display the browser's home page rather than the intended html
document.

This is rather annoying if the home page is something huge like my.yahoo.com

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to a page that opens a new window (like www.paradise.com)
2. Wait
3. Watch the new window open, and display your home page rather than target HTML
document.

Actual Results:  The new browser window displayed my home page as set in
preferences.

Expected Results:  The new browser window should have displayed the requested
html document.

<A HREF="http://www.mozilla.org" TARGET="_blank">Try this</A><BR>
This should have openeed your home page in a new browser window, when it should
have opened www.mozilla.org in a new browser window.
