174660 - efax help "related answers" links don't work

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 122866

(Core :: Security: CAPS, defect)

Description

[TT]

www.efax.com has an online help/FAQ knowledge base.  When you view a particular
FAQ, it also has a list of "related answers" that point to other FAQs.  The
links for these "related answer" FAQs don't work.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Go the URL listed above
2. Click on the first FAQ.  It should be called "How do I view the fax I received?"
3. Notice on the bottom a section titled "Related Answers" with six links, the
first being "How do I uninstall eFax Messenger Plus?"
4. Click on any of the links except the one labelled "More related answers...".
 Notice how nothing happens.

Here's where it gets interesting:

5. Ctrl-click on the web page (inside the frame) and select This Frame -> Open
Frame in New Window.
6. In the new open window, click on one of the links under "Related Answers"
that didn't work before.
7. Voila! The link works!  A new window is opened with the contents of that link.

I'm running Mozilla build 2002101108.

with linux trunk build 20021014, JS Console says:
Error: uncaught exception: Permission denied to get property Window.innerWidth
(the capability to resize the window is restricted in all.js)

dupe of bug 122866?  the relevant preferences were fixed in bug 117707, but no
further work seems to have been done.
