Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

This is the strangest thing I've ever seen in a browser. Aren't browsers
meant to allow users to click on a valid link that's on any given page
and either take you there or show you some kind of an error? Well,
sarcasm aside, this browser doesn't seem to want to work like that any
more and I'm not sure if it's because of some of the plugins I have
installed or what. For example, try going to the https://e-uprava.apis-
it.hr/igrast/afPregledi/Index.jsp and click on the link "pretraživanje"
in the upper left next to "naslovnica". Nothing happens! Now, try
telling it to open that link in a new tab and... whala, it opens in a
new tab just fine!

What gives? I don't even know where to start on this trying to figure it
out. Do any of you have any method of tracing what is taking place when
this type of stuff occurs? Is there a log I can retrieve or watch some
sort of a real time console output of what is the browser doing when I'm
clicking on those links? The same exact pages I'm having difficulties
with work just fine in other versions of Firefox, whether installed on
Windows or Linux platform.

This is the version in Intrepid with the problem:

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.3) Gecko/2008101315
Ubuntu/8.10 (intrepid) Firefox/3.0.3

And this is the one in the latest openSuse 11 that I'm not having the
issue with:

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.3) Gecko/2008091700
Ubuntu/8.10 (intrepid) Firefox/3.0.3
