Are you seriously filing a bug on Mozilla 1.0.1?  If not, what build _are_
youfiling the bug on?

Finally, what exactly are you typing and where to produce the problem?

My build is mozilla 1.4. 

1../mozilla -P ProfileManager
2.push the button "Create Profile"
3.when I input a new profile name,the actual folder name that is echoed is not
same as the new profile name.

Please try that.

  You didn't answer bz's question above, yet. What exactly did you type (set
View|Character Coding to UTF-8 before typing Chinese characters or any non-ASCII
characters) and what was the name of a new profile created by Mozilla (that you
reported was different from what you typed)? 

> My build is mozilla 1.4.

  On Solaris or Linux or what else and under what locale? When you filed a bug,
you used Mozilla 1.01 as show in comment #0. There's nothing wrong, but I just
want to make sure that what you reported is actually a 1.4 issue not a 1.01 issue. 

  Besides, can you try it on a recent nightly build see if you still have a
problem?

Two days ago I updated my mozilla code from mozilla.org.I am sure that mozilla
Trunk and mozilla1.4 both have this problem.

when I type the profile name with ASCII characters, for example "terry",
the following folder name echos "terr" .I think the length of profile name
string is less than the actual length. 

other examples:
1. type 't' ,echo '';
2. type 'e' ,echo 't';
3. type 'r' ,echo 'te';
4. type 'r' ,echo 'ter';
5. type 'y' ,echo 'terr'

I think it's the problem of code /mozilla/profile/resoures/content/newProfile1_2.js 
                                 /newProfile1_2.xul.

Please notify me if I am wrong.Thanks
