137952 - Can't use sidebars and preference panels

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(SeaMonkey :: Sidebar, defect)

Description

[Hadean Dragon]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:0.9.9+)
Gecko/20020328
BuildID:    2002041603

From May 1st onwards, I haven't been able to use any of the sidebars (including
the Inbox-section of Mozilla Mail) as well as preference panels... They load,
but I can't click anything at all.  Also Inbox loads at the bottom of the list
instead of the top of the list as usual.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Just load Preferences (View -> ) or load Mail and try clicking on something.

Actual Results:  When clicking, literally nothing happens - no highlighting, etc.

Expected Results:  Should be able to select options and such.

As mentioned, this has been going for weeks for me.  If you need anything more,
just ask as I don't know what else to say :-(

Reporter: 
Have you installed mozilla over an older build ?
IF yes: uninstall/reinstall mozilla

If you still get the problem try to create a new profile.
(run "mozilla -profilemanager" to create an additional test profile).

I think you have a corrupt build..you need to do a clean re-install.
also after new install, launch netscape with new profile and
then sidebar should work fine...

this looked fine on smoketests cross platform for branch and trunk as of 04-16

Yeah, I clean reinstalled with a new profile, now it's working perfectly fine. 
Sorry for posting this and wasting time!  I've just never had to clean
re-install before, so it didn't even cross my mind! :-/
