User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030322 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030322 Immediately after starting Mozilla, the sidebar (initially collapsed, but upon opening) is empty. The top line (the title "Sidebar", the "Tabs" drop-down menu, and the "X" close button are present), but nothing but the grey background is displayed below them. (It appears as if all Sidebar Tabs are switched off, but they are not; there are checkmarks beside each tab under the "Tabs" drop-down menu). This was (as of 1.2) an intermittent problem; sometimes, when creating a window, Mozilla would determine (somehow) that the Sidebar would not function in this way. Now, it acts this way every time Mozilla is started. Opening another Mozilla window usually results in a working sidebar... in that new window. Closing (as opposed to collapsing) the Sidebar, and then activating it again via the View menu will cause the Sidebar to work correctly in that window. Simply collapsing the Sidebar and then expanding it again has no effect on this problem. In 1.3, after opening another window (with a working Sidebar!), then switching off all tabs in that working Sidebar, then switching them all back on again, and then finally closing that window and returning to the window with the non-functional, currently collapsed sidebar, I expanded the Sidebar to make another test... and it worked! Playing around with it awhile longer, it appears that adding a tab to the Sidebar (turning any tab on; turning the tab off immediately preceding turing it on works too) makes all the Sidebars in the Mozilla application work properly -- i.e. reappear. The Sidebar can be collapsed or expanded without making any difference. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start Mozilla with the Sidebar's initial state being "collapsed". (It appears to work properly from the "expanded" [normal default on first starting] and "closed" states.) 2. Expand the Sidebar (by clicking on that bar on the left of your window). 3. Stare in bafflement. Please! ("Where's my Sidebars!?") Actual Results: The Sidebar is empty (as described above). Expected Results: I'd like my Sidebars to appear in the Sidebar. My History, Bookmarks, etc. (and yes, they ARE set ON under the "Tabs" listing). GCC 3.2.1 libc 2.3.1 Linux 2.4.20 (any theme; doesn't matter)
