Add some description to a bookmark.

Select Description on the left and put in a word that you put in the 
description.

No results display.
works for me on 2001010518 linux. Is it a regression?
Confirmed - Still seeing this

Platform: PC
OS: Windows 98
Mozilla Build: 2001022311


In addition Description is now named Comments in the Properties Menu.
Severity: normal → minor
Keywords: mozilla0.9.1, polish, regression
Word on the street is that bookmarks/history search is busted.  Should fix for 
beta1...
Keywords: nsbeta1, nsCatFood
yes we cant ship beta with search bookmarks busted.

Target Milestone: --- → mozilla0.9.1
Interestingly enough, I stumbled across this bug independently of reading this 
report while poking at the code, and I have a "fix in my tree."


nav triage team:

Check that fix in, dood!

Umm this is still busted for me. On all platforms with moz/comm. builds new/old profiles and
trying two different ways (Search Bookmarks from the Manage window, and Search Bookmarks/
History from Nav search menu) this behaves differently but is nonetheless busted.

In some cases I get no results in others it returned three bookmarks, none of which contained
the unique string('foopy') I added to the comments/description of one bookmark.

tested with 20010511 builds
Severity: minor → normal
Status: RESOLVED → REOPENED

nav triage: I reverse my earlier position. we can ship beta without this. 
deferring to m0.9.2.
Target Milestone: mozilla0.9.1 → mozilla0.9.2
Interesting. my tests show this working (windows, relatively old profile)

The bug that you can still search bookmarks from the other window should 
probably be filed if it hasn't already.
Priority: P1 → P2
This still works for me. Bookmarks, using the only dialog now available to 
search bookmarks. 

Claudius, can you still confirm that this is happening?
