*Summary:
	Call it a bug, call it feature work, whatever. Double-clicking on an entry in the
History view should launch the url in a new, chromed browser window.

*Build info
	This bug is XP and was tested and reporducedon WinNTsp4, MacOS 8.5.1,
and RHLinux 6.0.

*Actual results:
	This functionality is currently unimplemented as double-clicking yields only
the standard 'Javascript Error: OpenURL is not defined'.

Looks fixed now on all 3 platforms on 8/20.
Status: RESOLVED → REOPENED
using 1999082016 on win95 and on the mac, selecting Tasks|Tools|History displays
the History window. Selecting any item in the history window results in nothing
-- the selection is not triggered.
Resolution: FIXED → ---
With the Mac Build (19990829016) , the menu bar is completely scrambled when the
History window is opened. Clicking on the menu bar will cause a crash.
Whiteboard: fix ready. → Why has this been re-opened?
Steve, what's going on here?  Why has this been re-opened?

This still works on Linux, I need to get on a Mac.
I think this is a branch thing, based on my testing and jpatel's smoketest results,
I believe what happened was some divergence with the M9/M10 branching. This was
fixed everywhere but is now broken on the M9 branch.
verification is currently being blocked by bug 12563 on Linux and Mac.
this checks out OK with 1999082613 WinNT build

This is not working in recent builds on any platform.
Slamm, are you able to reproduce this? It seems a little flaky, sometimes it
works sometimes no.

Just changing the summary to reflect the fact that this affects both Bookmarks
and History
Hardware: All → PC
recent builds have shown this to actually only be a problem on Win32.
works fine as 1999100110 builds on Mac and linux. cahnging platform.

broken on Windows. I heard "ondblclick" has been deprecated, so I need to switch
the event handles to "onclick".
Depends on: 14857
Actually, I am supposed to use something like,

onmousedown="if (event.clickCount == 2) { /* double click action */ }"

This is described in but #14857. Marking it dependant.
This is broken on Linux now also. Stuff like clicking on related links, or
opening links from the bookmark manager. Using 100814 build.
