175349 - javascript:prompt() doesn't work in mozilla 1.2b

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 174775

(SeaMonkey :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[logan]

javascript:prompt() type bookmarks no longer work in mozilla 1.2b (did in <= 1.1).

javascript:void(q=prompt('Enter text to search using
Google.',''));if(q)location.href='http://www.google.com/search?client=googlet&q='+escape(q)

I thought maybe it was associated with the popup stuff, but I didn't see a
difference by disabling the Open Unrequested Windows option.

Hopefully it's not bad javascript that's just being ignored or something, if so,
my apologies. :P

unrequested windows didn't help.

But, I had that and dom.disable_open_click_delay set.

user_pref("dom.disable_open_click_delay", 1000);
user_pref("dom.disable_open_during_load", true);

Once I removed dom.disable_open_click_delay, then it worked.

Suggestions? I use both to help with popup windows, disable_open_during_load
didn't seem to catch everything. Has this option been deprecated?

I just noticed this was marked as a dupe of another bug as I was trying to
submit this update.

Not sure if anything above helps or not.
