109035 - View Page Info produces XML parsing error

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 83017

(SeaMonkey :: Page Info, defect)

Description

[Dan Tobias]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:0.9.5+) Gecko/20011106
BuildID:    2001110603

When you try the Page Info item on the View menu (or Ctrl-I), you get this error
(and no info comes up):

XML Parsing Error: undefined entity
Location: chrome://navigator/content/pageInfo.xul
Line Number 52, Column 33:

<label class="header" value="&pageInfo.description;"/>
--------------------------------^


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load any web page.
2. Press Ctrl-I.


Actual Results:  Error dialog occurs, and page info never comes up.

Expected Results:  Page information window with info on current page.

This seems to be a syntax error in the XML data used to implement this feature.
 I think the ampersand in the parameter value needs to be escaped to prevent it
from being parsed as an entity reference.

dup of bug 83017 (by way of dup bug 108895). This is fixed again.
