Details
Overview description: Clicking and dragging the icon at the left of the location input field to another program that supports XDND doesn't transfer the text. Steps to reproduce: 1) Download ftp://ftp.pma.caltech.edu/pub/jafl/xdnd/xdnd-v4-binary-Linux-Intel.tgz This is for use on Linux glibc 2.1 systems. I can provide the source if you need to run it on a different Linux/UNIX variant. 2) Click and drag icon at the left of the location input field in Mozilla. 3) Observe the output printed by the XDND test binary: a) The data type "application/x-rootwin-drop" should actually be "application/x-rootwindow-drop" as specified in the XDND v4 spec at http://www.newplanetsoftware.com/xdnd/drop_on_root.html b) The drop action doesn't change when the Meta key is pressed/released, only when the mouse is moved after pressing/releasing the Meta key. (The drop will only be accepted when the action is "copy") c) When the mouse is released, the drop fails because the data type "text/plain" cannot be retrieved by the XDND test program. (The test program will automatically print the contents of "text/plain" if it can retrieve it.) d) When the drop action is "ask" (by holding down the Meta key), the test program is unable to complete the drop because the action list contains two actions while the description list is empty. This is explained at http://www.newplanetsoftware.com/xdnd/ in the Technical Details section under XdndActionList and XdndActionDescription.
