I tend to leave Firefox running for days at a time. After a few days of
uptime, when I click on a link it will open a new window (called "untitled
window" according to the task bar) and load the web page into that. The
"untitled window" doesn't have the top menu items (forward, back, location bar,
what-have-you), it just shows the actual web page that I clicked on. If I go
back (right-click, select "back" as there is no menu), "untitled window"
disappears and I'm back to the usual Firefox screen with the menu items and so
on, but when I click on any link from there it puts me back into "untitled
window". If I go back two screens, then I still get put into "untitled window"
when I click a new link, or even the one that I just came from.
If I close "untitled window", Firefox closes. I can then reload it and
everything works for another several days or a week until it happens again.
I have had this going on through several Firefox revisions on FC6.
Any idea why?
No, but the problem isn't FC specific.
I run the stock version of Firefox 2.0.0.2 on RHELv4-U4 and the same thing
happens occasionally. I've not searched the Mozilla/Firefox forums so I
don't know if it is a reported problem. In any event, with 2.0, when
Firefox crashes like that it will offer to restore your previous session so
you don't lose much time.
