Description bht 2011-03-27 09:30:59 UTC 
If a "new" keyword is involved in a function call, then it is not possible to navigate from the calling function to the function declaration.

Example:

function test(){
    
    function MyConstructor(){}
    MyConstructor();// navigation to MyConstructor() works
    var result = new MyConstructor();// navigation to MyConstructor() breaks
    
}

Both of these navigation cases work in the new javascript editor, feel free to check that in the latest development builds:

Marking as fixed for NB7.3.
