Re: behavior of gnome-panel

[Wil Willis <thewilbob comcast net>]

Thanks to all who replied to this.  I wanted firefox to open a tab and 
display a page when I click on a hyperlink in thunderbird.  Currently 
the tab opens but is minimized and you stay with the mail reader.

SYSTEM->PREFERENCES->APPEARANCE->VISUALS is where I was able to get it 
to work but only sometimes.  It's hard to tell what's in charge of 
display characteristics in this Ubuntu 10.10 / Gnome 2.3.2.0 system.

regards,

wil
