If you drag a folder into the content area, nothing loads, but the existing page remains in a wierd zombie state.

Things are slightly better with user_pref("network.dir.format", 2); user_pref("network.dir.generate_html", true); but we're missing some GIF files, and it crashes when I go 'Back' to a listing.

IE doesn't do anything when you drag a folder in (although it doesn't go into a zombie state either). What is expected behavior here, do nothing?

Show an HTML file listing like 4.x does. That happens if you flip those two prefs.
I don't suppose there's any way to display it in some nice tree format like Moz does, and also do it for FTP...(I know Chim doesn't have XUL, but still)

Greg: no :) We are not the Finder.

okay, any reason not to flip the 2 prefs then?

Yes, crashes (read up). But they might be easily fixed. And we still need to fix the zombie content issue. It happens in other situations too, and suggests bad refcounting behaviour.

I suppose if someone drags a folder to a Chimera window, it could bounce it back to the Finder and open it there. What do you think of that?

We could reject the drag like that, sure.

We should probably do the same thing if a disk is dragged. Anything else?

i've found that dragging a link from one page onto another tab gets me into a state (essentially a hang) where that link never loads. (the throbber just spins and spins.) would that be the same as this bug, or something separate? test case: 0. quit chimera. 1. start chimera. make sure some content is loaded initially. eg, your default home page. 2. open another tab (eg, cmd+T) --it doesn't matter whether the default home page or about:blank loads in this new tab. 3. return to the first tab. 4. drag a link from the first tab and drop it onto the tab for the second one. 5. go to the second tab, and wait for the link to load. results: kept waiting and waiting.... no page load. note on step 1: my default home page is http://mozilla.org/, but i've also tried other web pages in the first tab, like http://kith.org/, http://www.iwaruna.com/orca/ (the latter has no images, fwiw). i found an odd case where i don't encounter the hang: when the first tab has frames --okay, i tried two sites: http://wired.com/ and http://faqs.org/, so maybe frames themselves might not "workaround" this issue... ;)
