(Keywords: polish)

using 8/3 build of apprunner on all platforms:

1) launch apprunner
2) highlight some text
3) click on link button to bring up link dialog
4) glide your mouse cursor over the link text at the top

notice the cursor changes to edit mode as you glide the mouse over that
piece of text. This should not happen because you're not allowed or able
to edit that text. It is read-only. see 4.x prodcut for comparison.

all platforms.

I don't see the bug in my build, updated as of 8/3/99, so it must have
been introduced recently. Does it occur with content in any other dialog?
I don't think it's an editor problem. There's supposed to be something that
suppresses editing.
If not, it must be related to the fact that this "read-only" text is inserted
in the "onload" handler of the dialog, afte initial layout.
David: any ideas?

David: Any response to my previous question?
The edit cursor is set when you mouse over text in many of the dialogs, not
just the link dialog.
It looks like text inside a <label></label> tag surpresses the edit cursor.
The editor doesn't control the cursor, so I need to find out who to reassign
this too!

This seems to be fixed -- probably side effect of XPFE fixes.
