206209 - directory name off-by-one in profile manager "create new profile"

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 200439

(SeaMonkey :: Startup & Profiles, defect)

Description

[Martin Pool]

User-Agent:       Dillo/0.7.2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030516 Mozilla Firebird/0.6

I chose the

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run MozillaFirebird -ProfileManager
2. Choose "Create new profile"
3. Enter some text in the profile name and watch the directory underneath "Your user settings etc will be stored in"
Actual Results:  
The directory name "lags" my entry by one character.  As I enter text, it shows all but the last character.  Similary when deleting or changing existing text.

It's like it is triggering off the "field changed" event, but is looking at the contents before the change, rather than afterwards.

The directory is created with the correct filename based on the profile name and not the one that is displayed.  So this is only a cosmetic bug, but a slightly disturbing one.

Expected Results:  
It ought to update in lockstep with the name of the profile.

What can I say, I did search for dupes first but obviously I missed it.

Thanks for a great bit of software!
