User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1) Build Identifier: Firefox 1 Final STOP button before the page is opened eliminates the link from address bar After I click one link in a webpage to open in another Firefox window then click STOP before the page is opened, because I wana browse that page later, after i click STOP the link don't apear in the address bar even if i click GO or Refresh it does not open any page because the link disapear does not exit on the address bar. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to this webpage http://www.hclips.net 2. Click on one image to open a link. 3. It opens another Firefox window with a link like this "http://www.hclips.net/stt-out.php? f=1&link=A7118&url=http://www.wannawatch.com/hosted/index.php" 4 . The problem in this link "http://www.hclips.net/stt-out.php? f=1&link=A7118&url=http://www.wannawatch.com/hosted/index.php" is that it is a random redirect link that dows'nt opens every time this link "http://www.wannawatch.com/hosted/index.php", many times it opens another links instead of this one. You could'nt eliminate the random redirect link and open only the real link but you could make to work that STOP button and mantains the link "http://www.hclips.net/stt-out.php? f=1&link=A7118&url=http://www.wannawatch.com/hosted/index.php" so we can edit the link and open only the " http://www.wannawatch.com/hosted/index.php" link. 5. The conclusion is that when you click on that link "http://www.hclips.net/stt-out.php? f=1&link=A7118&url=http://www.wannawatch.com/hosted/index.php" and opens another window with that link you must click STOP before the random link opens, edit that link and opens only the real link "http://www.wannawatch.com/hosted/index.php" 6. The real problem is that when you click STOP before the webpage opens you lose the link, and can't edit the link to click Go next after editing. 6. That was just an example but there are many many more webpages like that one when you are redirected to another webpage instead of the original link without been able to click STOP edit the link then click Go on the real link. Actual Results: I can't edit the link before it opens. Expected Results: after click on STOP before the webpage opens, to maintain the link on the address bar so we can edit the link or open it at a later time. Fixing this issue is very important for me so I can use this browser instead of the IE.
