Awesome Window Manager - Rule assigning programs to tags

I have a set of tags 'main', 'www', and 3:

-- {{{ Tags
tags = {
    names = {"main", "www", 3},
    for s = 1, screen.count() do
       tags[s] = awful.tag(tags.names, s, tags.layout)
    end
}
-- }}}

I want Firefox to open in tag "www". I've tried the following rule:

-- {{{ Rules
awful.rules.rules = {
    { rule = {class = "Firefox" },
      properties = { tag = tags[1]["www"] }},
}
-- }}}

However, if I hit Super+R then type 'firefox' or run 'firefox &' from a terminal, Firefox opens in whatever tag I'm viewing.

I've tried {class = "firefox"} and properties = { tag = tags[1][2] } but those modified rules did not work either.

What is the correct way to set up a rule to make firefox always open in a particular tag?

Answer

I'm just going to paste my excerpts here. These are confirmed working as of 3.4.10+.

I have no idea how Lua deals with whitespace, I do notice your curly braces and whitespaces are inconsistent.
