Somehow (and don't ask me how... ) I got to a situation when a "new editor" pane is empty - w/o any tabs, and still visible. In  this situation - it is not possible to close it at all :( . The only way to close it it to open a new editor on it, and close the new tab. 

I suggest you either avoid this situation, make available a drop down menu on the pane-level so to be able to close it.

FYI, and thanks

-Rafi

That's a platform issue.

I get a domain-unregistered error when I try to open the image. Please attach the image directly to this bug.

Also, any thing in the Error Log?

I am not 100% sure, but I think the issue occurs when you have a split editor area and one pane contains an editor which is not persisted.  Upon restart this pane is empty.

     Clicking on the image in URL field forwards me to: http://imageshack.us/img/blocked_login.jpg With no steps to reproduce, no image to see and no trace of the Error Log, I have no clue of what you guys are talking about.

It's possible. I did have a split editor for some files :)

When is 3.7 being released ? How about getting the fix into 3.6 service pack as well ?

   3.7 release is in June 2011. Both the service packs for 3.6 are already released.
