219050 - bookmarks dropdown does not expand folders containing recently modified bookmarks

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 210910

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[Sean Graham]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030728 Mozilla Firebird/0.6.1

Changing the properties of a bookmarks, using the "manage bookmarks", has caused
the folder that contained the modified bookmarks to not expand when using the
dropdown interface on the main Firebird Browse UI.

I have run into this a few times now, but have not determed the exact action
require to cause. At this time some theories may be:

- first folder in the bookmark list
- using characters such as " : " and " - " in bookmark name


Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. From main UI -> select Bookmarks
2. Select Manage
3. Select first folder in list
4. Modify properties of bookmarks (name)
5. Close bookmark manager
6. From main UI -> select Bookmarks
7. Select the folder in which the modified bookmarks are stored
8. The folder may not expand to list contents

Actual Results:  
The folder may not expand to list contents.

Expected Results:  
Displayed the bookmarks found in the selected folder

WFM (so far).

Reporter - can you give a bit more info e.g. what specific folder names are you
using (change from what to what)? How regularly, or with what probablility does
this happen?

this is really bug 210910 Right-clicking a file within a bookmarks folder in the
bookmarks menu or toolbar makes that folder inaccessible,
but worded very differently.
