clicking bookmarks in quick bookmarks or in bookmarks pulldown has no effect in
a unique bookmarks-manager spawned window:
open phoenix
open bookmark manager
close browser window(s)
open URL from bookmark manager (opens a new browser window)
bookmarks in that window are unusable
also, "open in tabs" doesn't appear in quickbar groups

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open phoenix
2. open bookmark manager
3. close browser window(s)
4. open URL from bookmark manager (opens a new browser window)


Actual Results:  
bookmarks appeared, but were unusable (no effect by clicking, but the menus open
fine)
"open in tabs" does not appear

Expected Results:  
either not show menus (bad) or have the bookmarks work as normal (good)

new phoenix install, previous install of Moz 1.2.1

After these steps, I can't access using [Bookmarks] on Menu-bar and
Bookmarks-toolbar.
But still accessible with Bookmarks Sidebar and Bookmark Manager.

Bookmarks in toolbar also not responsive if you just close the open browser
window and then open a new one.

We have reproduced this bug on Mac OS X 10.2.8 as well with Firebird v0.7.

Can anyone else confirm that this is fixed? I'm wondering if some of the Mac
reports of this bug were actually due to bug 223331, which was fixed about a
week ago, and that the Windows version has been fixed for longer.

Seems to be resolved on 10/27, definitely post 0.7 fix, probably part of pch's
bookmarks cleanup checkins had an intended (or unintended) effect.  Either way,
this is fixed.

This was marked as fixed, but I just reverified it's existence in FireBird 0.7
for Windows.  I am running XP.  This was an upgrade, but I did delete my profile
and start anew, so I don't think this is my mistake.  I cannot explain my
differing result.  Perhaps you had another browser window hidden somewhere?

Woops, sorry - I misread previous comments as asserting that this was fixed IN
0.7 instead of post.  Sorry about the noise.

sorry for bugspam, long-overdue mass reassign of ancient QA contact bugs, filter on "beltznerLovesGoats" to get rid of this mass change
