111871 - Empty URL bar should have disabled site icon

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(SeaMonkey :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[xyzzy]

Build 2001112003 Windows 98

1) Use Ctrl+T to open an new tab

Actual results:

New tab opens with URL bar site icon enabled, so drag and drop hand icon appears
when mouse is over it, but can't drag and drop anyway.

Expected results:

New tab opens with site icon disabled, since this is not yet a URL that has been
accessed.  This is consistent with current bahavior, disabling the icon for
hand-typed URLs.

component Tabbed Browser, since this is about tabs and not urlbar.

Some remarks:

1.tooltiptext stays 'Drag and drop this icon to create a link to this page' 
Huh, 'drag and drop...' this can't be true now is it? Should be removed!

2.clicking the bookmark icon will open the 'Add Bookmark' dialog
Why on earth bookmark 'about:blank' pages? This should be disabled!

note: this should also be removed/disabled if you switch tabs.

Ok, this bug is under control now but I need code from the patch in bug 104778
to get it working (consider to dup this bug). I will make a new patch for 104778
with this fix in it, ok?

BTW: the favicon isn't re-loaded after you press esc in de url bar, but I will
try to fix that also.

HJ,

If your patch in 104778 fixes this, great!  Please mark this fixed when that
goes in, but don't dupe it.  No point in adding confusion to that already
confused bug.

MASS-CHANGE:
This bug report is registered in the SeaMonkey product, but has been without a comment since the inception of the SeaMonkey project. This means that it was logged against the old Mozilla suite and we cannot determine that it's still valid for the current SeaMonkey suite. Because of this, we are setting it to an UNCONFIRMED state.

If you can confirm that this report still applies to current SeaMonkey 2.x nightly builds, please set it back to the NEW state along with a comment on how you reproduced it on what Build ID, or if it's an enhancement request, why it's still worth implementing and in what way.
If you can confirm that the report doesn't apply to current SeaMonkey 2.x nightly builds, please set it to the appropriate RESOLVED state (WORKSFORME, INVALID, WONTFIX, or similar).
If no action happens within the next few months, we move this bug report to an EXPIRED state.

This bug report is registered in the SeaMonkey product, but still has no comment since the inception of the SeaMonkey project 5 years ago.

If you still can reproduce the bug on SeaMonkey 2 or otherwise think it's still valid, please REOPEN it and if it is a platform or toolkit issue, move it to the according component.
