Launching apps with multiple tabs cause all tabs to highlight

[Bryce Harrington]

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

Steps to reproduce on Intrepid:
  * Start firefox and open 3 new windows on different URLs
  * Do File -> Quit. When asked about saving tabs and windows, say yes
  * Launch firefox again. When asked about restoring previous state, say yes

Expected behavior would be that firefox starts up with its windows as separate tabs in gnome-panel, with none highlighted.

Actual behavior is that ALL firefox tabs are highlighted.

that seems to be rather a firefox issue, no GNOME application do that, I just tried on intrepid and don't get the bug

Has this been resolved in Firefox-3.0?

[John Vivirito (gnomefreak)]

i dont see this bug in 3.0

[Bryce Harrington (bryce)]

I still see it with 3.0.7.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.

[Bryce Harrington (bryce)]

Yes, it still affects the latest Ubuntu release.

Bryce, can you please try the latest trunk (firefox-3.7) build to see if this still exists there?
