Odd. I haven't noticed this (FF 3.0b2 on Fedora i686 and on Gentoo amd64
- but probably an i686 binary, running uremotely under an i686 fvwm on a
laptop), but I almost never open a new window from the right-click menu;
I almost invariably open tabs and open new windows only for unrelated
starting URLs, via a key binding that runs firefox -remote to ask for
a new window.

 I tried this using the fvwm snapshot from yesterday. Can anybody
 reproduce this?

For myself, no. But as remarked, I rarely open new windows from the
menu. But not never.

Cheers,

Sometimes.   Sometimes not.  Guess what though, it'll still be a bug
in Firefox, since it also happens under xmonad.

Hi folks,

Playing with Firefox 3.0b2 on Linux (Debian amd64) I see that sometimes
there are problems with input focus, if I right-click on a link to open
