2127 - Copy/Paste to File->Publish causes Composer & Communicator to hang

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(MozillaClassic Graveyard :: Composer, defect, P1)

Description

[Paul MacQuiddy]

I was asked to file this in bugzilla for 5.0  It is a dup of 314593 on Netscape
internal bug system.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Copying and pasting from the main Communicator
window to the "Upload files to this location" text field in
Composer's File->Publish... dialog causes both Composer and Communicator to
hang.

Customer reported this for 4.05 and Solaris 2.6; hackett observed it with 4.06
and Solaris 2.5.1

To reproduce:
1. Start Communicator, and also start Composer.
2. In Communicator, select some text and choose
Edit->Copy.
3. Now in Composer, choose File->Publish... and a
dialog will pop up.
4. In the Publish dialog, click on the "Upload
files to this location"
text field and hit the Paste keyboard key.  This should hang
netscape every time.

The current plan doesn't even include a publish dialog, so this bug is
meaningless for the near term.  Marking LATER.

verified later

Comment 3

[Greg Kostello]

Let's leave this as a "Later" bug if/when publishing becomes a feature. We will
test against it then.

LATER is going away; reopening to mark invalid, since it was a 4.x bug.

Comment 6

[Akkana Peck]

4.x bug, no such dialog in the mozilla codebase (and when one is eventually
added, it will be all new code).

verifying and closing; it's unlikely that this problem would be in the publish
UI in the same manner as this bug describes.
