https-finder - issue #28
Clicking on 'about' links appear to replace all tabs with the target page (Done, will be in next release)
What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Open Addons page and goto Options for HTTPS-Finder 2. Click the 'here' link at the bottom of the Options dialog
What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Help page should open in a new tab in the current FF window; instead it either opens in a new window, or it replaces the current tabs with the help page -- either way I cannot get back to the previous tabs
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? Firefox 4.01 on Windows XP SP3

Posted on Jun 3, 2011 by Swift OxThe code should only open a new window with one tab (the code is 'window.open('http://someurl.com')). If it replaced your other tabs, I'm not sure why/how that happened - sorry.
In any case, I made the fix so that pages add a tab to the current window (underneath the modal preference window).
The one I'm going to leave is on the rule preview - it opens instructions in a separate window so the user can look through them without closing the rule preview window (then to make a rule they'd have to manually edit the URL and re-detect).
The fix is made in my current development build, and will be in the next release.
