Internet Explorer Address Bar Error Currently Unavailable
behavior in Internet Explorer 7: Open a new IE7 window. Fairly quickly (before the homepage begins loading), paste a valid URL into the address bar and press enter. An error message appears: Caption "Address bar", text "[Url] is currently unavailable." The error doesn't occur if I wait a second or two after the windows opens before navigating to the new URL. This may seem like a fairly contrived set of steps to take, but I wasn't hunting for IE7 bugs when I ran across this; I was just using the browser normally. It's a series of steps I do fairly frequently to quickly bring up a URL in a new IE window via keyboard: copy an URL to the clipboard, open the new IE window (Winkey | down arrow | Enter -- IE is the top item in my Windows XP Start menu), Alt+d to set the focus to the address bar in the new IE7 window, Ctrl+v to paste the URL, enter to navigate to the URL. I have to think this behavior of IE7 is a bug -- at least, it doesn't seem like something that should be classified as "working as intended" or "by design"! And I never saw this behavior in several years of using IE6.

The problem seems to disappear only in the new tabs. The first one I simply don't use.[]BigaReplyDeleteAnonymous12/12/2006 3:34 PMI noticed that too. In my case I have the Links bar showing. At first, the Links bar isn't displayed. During this time I get that "is currenly unavailable" message to any URL. After a couple seconds the Links bar appears and
