Hi all,

I just downloaded Firefox 0.9.3 to my 700Mhz G4 eMac running 10.3.2.

All's great except if a browser window isn't already open (I use a blank
'home' page), a bookmarked site won't open a new one... it just sits
there. It seems it's necessary to get a 'New window' from the file menu
(or Command-N) before bookmarks will again work.

This isn't normal I hope...

I hope I've explained my issue clearly... but will keep watching here
should anyone have any questions/solutions/thoughts/ideas...

Thanks!

Erik

Seems to be a known bug:

Thanks Brion, sure looks like it... decided to go back to 1.7.2 anyway,
it seems to be a lot more flexible.

See Ya!
