187818 - url lookup instead of bookmark keyword in address field

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[paul stanton]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021201
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021201

when i type one of my bookmark keywords in the address field, moz resolves a
constructed url for that keyword rather then using the the bookmark. this has
happened for me before on other bookmarks (one i remember: "contacts") and
changing the keyword of the bookmark does fix the problem.

bookmark info...
Name: links
Location: http://wanto.f2o.org/links/links.xml
Keyword: links

without looking at the code, i assume the keyword is not the first thing looked
up when entering a cmd in the address field? or this could be a fallback if an
exception is thrown looking up the bookmarks?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
i type "links" which is a valid bookmark keyword (trust me) and hit enter
Actual Results:  
moz takes me to the page "http://www.links.com/"

Expected Results:  
matched my bookmark for the "links" keyword

sounds like a uri fixup problem...

Comment 2

[Adam Lock]

If it's getting to URI fixup, it suggests bookmarks or navigator is not finding
the named bookmark properly in navigator.js where it calls getShortcutOrURI during.

If lookup had succeeded, the URL would be supplied to docshell and not the name.

Reassign to bookmarks.

Judging by the example, this is a dup of Bug 144875 (custom keywords with
keyword same as bookmark don't work).

Can someone confirm?

I have tested this using 
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030502
and it works for me. 

I have also tested the mentioned Bug 144875 and thats works for me too

Reporter could you please retest with a more recent build and see if the 
problem persist. 
if the problem persist please try and provide some more information on how to 
reproduce this.
If the problem is gone,please resolve this bug as works-for-me
