reporter, this is a build nearly two months old please download a current build from http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firebird/nightly/latest-trunk/ and test again. I assume that you're saying that when all windows are closed, the firebird process is still running?

Downloaded latest build from link specified. <Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030709 Mozilla Firebird/0.6> Issue still remains. You are correct, you are correct that Firebird process is still running. In Mac OS applications do not quit when their windows are closed.

i can confirm that command-l does not open a new window. however, i am not sure what the appropriate behavior should be. in mozilla seamonkey 1.4, command-l does not open a new window. in safari 1.0, command-l does open a new window. is it weird to have three browsers in your dock? i think so. :)

Reporter, does Camino support this behaviour? That project is more focued on working as a true Mac OS X app, where Firebird is cross-platform and not really customized for each platform. Confirming as a feature request and tweaking summary, although as this may likely be WONTFIXed.

camino opens a new window on command-l. IE mac also opens a new window. god, i have entirely too many browsers.

reassigning mac bugs, sorry for the spam.

Yes, Firebird should open a new window on Cmd+L and focus the URL bar.

err, explain to me why this is critical and not rfe? at most this should be major.

-> me.

Anndddd... fixed.

Yes, it is important as end users get confused when an application is running, but there are no visible windows. I have had to refrain from rolling out Firebird for this very reason. A related (and more serious) point is that clicking on the icon in the dock should open a new window, if there are none visible. Last time I checked, Mozilla did this, and Camino does too. If you give me hint as to where to start, I will submit a patch. Ben

Ben Fowler, you're talking about bug 204484 - there's information in the bug about where to start. Best of luck with that!
