Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Get a number of tabs open. Any will do. 2. Open a new tab and go to a page with an icon, e.g. ximian.com. Verify that the little monkey icon is there in the address window to the left of the "http:" 3. Move back to one of the earlier tabs 4. Come back to the ximian one Actual Results: The little monkey icon is lost from the address bar, and replaced with the default bookmark one. Expected Results: It should have kept the icon

1.6b build (20031208) and 1.6final (20040113) are correct, but 20040101/trunk build and later are wrong. I don't have any build between these days, but regression have to be early in 1.7a developement. Boris, I'm sorry to bother you, but who could be able to track this regression in checkings?
With the following steps: 1) Start mozilla pointing at this bug 2) Open a new tab (which shows about:blank) using Ctrl-T 3) Go back to this bug I see this issue in the 2003-12-08 build, as well as 2003-11-01. I didn't bother testing further.
Boris: IMHO there are two situations: Mark's repro from bug's description fits Testcase A, your's repro in comment #3 fits Testcase B: Testcase A 1. leave 1st tab blank or with any content 2. open a new 2nd tab using Ctrl-T 3. load http://www.mozilla.org/ in this tab 4. open a new 3rd tab using Ctrl-T 5. go back to 2nd tab OK: 1.4/20030624, 1.6b/2003120808, 1.6/20040113 Broken: trunk/20040101, 1.7a/20040219 Testcase B 1. open http://www.mozilla.org/ in browser's 1st tab 2. open a new tab using Ctrl-T 3. go back to 1st tab OK: maybe never Broken: 1.3.1, 1.4/20030624, 1.6b/2003120808, 1.6/20040113, trunk/20040101, 1.7a/20040219

Looks like testcase A broke between 2003-12-20-09 and 2003-12-21-09. I see nothing there that should have affected this behavior, so I am guessing the brokenness from testcase B now affects testcase A too, for some reason. The right thing to do is to fix B; then A should be fixed too.

Tested with 1.7RC2 but it is still broken. We seem to be stuck with this one for 1.7
*** Bug 245496 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
This bug was probably fixed by my patch for bug 289609. Please resolve this FIXED if it works properly now.

testcase A as described in comment 4 works with linux trunk 2005041705 (before bug 289609) and is broken in 2005041505 (before bug 289609) testcase B sounds like bug bug 129282 resolving FIXED-by-bug 289609
