Details

the dialog box where you enter the automatic proxy configuration URL will not allow you to enter text. This worked in 0.9.6 and 0.9.7, and is broken in 0.9.8. At the University of Washington, this setting allows biomedical researchers who don't use the UW as their ISP to access online journals from home as if they came from a UW IP address....umm, so it's pretty important to me.
Networking folks own this pref panel.

WFM, X.1, RC1. -Brett
WFM in Mac OS X 10.1 in Mozilla 0.9.8 and 0.9.9, b/c I know I smoketested the builds. Did a new profile test show the same problem? If so, I would be interested in getting your networking.* lines from the prefs.js that has the problem. Anyhow, please try RC1, because we are trying to update everything to the latest. (also clarified summary)

Greg: I've resolved/WFM, you can verify/WFM based on your results. Matthew: you can reopen this if you provide the requested info. you may also be using a build that has had a prefs-locking product used on it (which I understand minimally).
