Set Tools>Options>Tabs>Open in a new tab (not sure about the text, my firefox is in Spanish) 2. Start Menu | Run | "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" http://google.com/ 3. In firefox, File | Print Preview 4. Without hitting the firefox [Close] button, Menu | Run | "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" http://yahoo.com/ Actual Results: The second page (yahoo.com in the example) shows in print preview mode. If I hit the firefox print preview [Close] button, nothing happens unless I switch to the original previewed page before hitting the button. Expected Results: I expected the second page (yahoo.com in the example) to open in a browseable window or tab, not in print preview mode. Or, at least, to be able to exit the print preview mode from another tab than the one entered that mode. I think the "Print Preview Mode" is now done in a per-window basis. I expected it to be per-tab.
Confirming. I've just experienced this with a trunk build as I clicked a link in Thunderbird. Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a9pre) Gecko/2007092605 Minefield/3.0a9pre

(In reply to comment #0) > The second page (yahoo.com in the example) shows in print preview mode. That's not accurate. The print preview toolbar persists, but at the same time the page is fully browsable and not rendered like a print preview. At least that's what I see.
