Hi, this issue happened to me multiple times since I am using Firebox Beta.

When I have 2 or more tabs and I am closing one of them, sometimes the tab that gets activated appears completely blank.

If I open the tab drawer and reactivate it / if I switch to another tab and back to it again, then it displays correctly the contents of the website.

Yes, it must be a bug. One workaround is to change phone's position to horizontal and back to vertical. The second is to switch tabs by slide left/right on a URL bar.

Ah, happy to know that the community knows about it!

Thank you for the advice. It does not happen all the time as I am not able to replicate the issue.

It's a minor bug but it is still a bit annoying, would be great if it is corrected in a future release.

Should I mark this as solved?
