Build: 2002-07-08-05 Pltform: OS X 10.1.5
Expected Results: Dragging/dropping a bookmark from sidebar to browser window should work. What I got: After modifying bookmarks title, drag and drop falls for this bookmark Steps to reproduce: 1) Go to url 2) Add the page as a bookmark. 3) Go to a different page. Open sidebar and select new bookmark 4) Drag and drop bookmark from sidebar to browser window. Verify this works. 5) With bookmark still highlighted in sidebar, click on pencil icon. 6) Change title to Apple's site. Close this window. 7) Attempt to drag/drop the same bookmark again to the window. Notice this isn't functioning.

Seems like the bookmark's title value is being processed rather than the bookmark's url. Steps to reproduce: 1) Create another bookmark based from apple.com 2) Change the bookmark's title from Apple to Netscape. Notice the location field still shows http://www.apple.com/. Close window. 3) Drag/drop the bookmark to browser window. Notice the netscape page loads.

i know why the 2nd 'bug' is happening. It's because the text we put on the pasteboard for a bookmark drag is <title>/n<url> so when dragged into the content area (which doesn't know about this), we just read up to the /n and try to load "netscape", which gets mapped to www.netscape.com. that's a separate issue and probably shouldn't be confused with the first.
This regression started on the July 6th NB.

sounds like the changes smfr landed to sprinkle around the string pasteboard flavor. smfr? you're prolly best to handle this since you know what you did.

This bug's summary should probably be changed to something like "Bookmark's title value is processed instead of it's location value after drag/drop event "
this is really a dup of bug 154904. I was indeed using the bookmark name, rather than the URL. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 154904 ***
