160474 - Yahoo mail's address book popup blanks out and hangs.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 160339

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: English US, defect)

Description

[Stew Snapinfo]

At Yahoo!, during composition of a new email, I click 'insert email from address
book' and in the popup window I check the email address I want then I click
'done'. Instead of closing the popup and inserting the address into the new mail
 message, the address book pop-up window goes blank (ie all white) and hangs and
doesn't insert the checked email address back into the new email message being
composed.

The following error appears in the javascript console...
Error: uncaught exception: Permission denied to get property
HTMLFormElement.elements

I'm running Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.1b) Gecko/20020721

Could you test a more recent build and see if you still have the problem?

Comment 2

Now testing with:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win95; en-US; rv:1.1b) Gecko/20020818

Behaviour is identical as described above, except message in JS console is now:
Error: uncaught exception: Permission denied to get property HTMLDocument.Compose

(Note: I'm a user of the *Australian* Yahoo!Mail.  This probably should be
tested on a different county's Y!Mail server)
