address window doesn't always show current address

[Don Chesnut]

Binary package hint: firefox

In some cases, the address window doesn't show the current address. A previously visited address remains displayed. When I bookmark a page, the previously visited link is bookmarked, not the current one. For some reason, Foxfire is not updating the address window with the new address even though the new page is obvious. This only happens on certain sites (the problem occurs only after visiting these sites).
