Tested on Linux build 2000-08-17-13. Dragging and dropping to the URL bar has no effect. The expected result is that the link or selection being dragged would be pasted into the URL bar. To reproduce, simply drag a selection or link to the URL bar and drop. The "+" indicating target lock appears, but nothing is actually pasted. The word "OnToplevelDragDrop" appears on the console.

i disagree with the expected result for dragging a link into the url bar. i think the browser should go to the url in the link. cf bug 36867.
Saw this on NT as well, changing OS to All. By the way, I think this worked once when I tested on Linux. Haven't gotten it to work after that, though. Drag and drop -> pinkerton@netscape.com

ok, so the selected URI gets pasted into the location field, but the page is not loaded. The pasting should trigger the load. This can wait, setting to future and we will address this in the next release

No, the problem is that nothing gets pasted into the URL bar at all. This is on Linux 2000-08-18-06.
this doesnt seem to work on any platforms. i have a question, did this ever work? the reason i ask, is that pink made some changes to d&d that adversly changed the behaviour of d&d with editor, specifically single line text fields (which the url bar is). After I fix the other d&d bug, I will see if this one is effected. anthony ps. unless if course this never worked, in that case its something different. pps. also, someone needs to make a decision about waht the correct behaviour here is.

Yes id did work at one time. You could also select a URL in an xterm and drop it on the main window and it would be loaded. It doesn't work with 2000082221 build.

odd, on win98 I drag and drop a url into the url bar, it does not drag correctly (the current entry in the bar is not removed) but, the drag works. if i have a uri in the body, select and drag in 4x, it does not allow the drag into the location bar, that is on win and mac -- didn't test linux in 5.0 win allows the drag as stated above, mac does not even allow the drag, again I did not test linux I am still inclined to future this request.

moving out to future, prompting a load action on drop can be addressed in the next release

just a quick comment, you can drag and drop a link to the url bar, and it will drop the link location there. what more is needed? do we want that url to begin loading, or have the user hit return to begin the load of the dropped link? anthonyd

When I drag a link into the URL bar with either Moz 0.7, or 2001-01-09-08 Linux, I get the _text_ of the link in the bar, not the URL. This is clearly broken, no?

This wfm in a new build. Selection dnd is broken, but that's a separate bug. The link url, not text, is dropped into the urlbar.
