223548 - 2 Problems bookmark editing: Off by one creation, GUI cut & paste omits data display

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(SeaMonkey :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[James - listmail]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007

1) Personal Folders - An "Off by 1" or inheritance problem; attempting to add
another subfolder or bookmark via menu -> File -> etc does create folder or
bookmark with the entered field values, but one folder higher than the one that
has been "opened" and displays as such in the gui.

2) Related to 1, above. When selecting a folder group that is one "too high"
   in the hierachy, doing a cut and paste succeeds without actually losing
   contents. BUT: the gui after the operation won't DISPLAY contents. Closing
   the Bookmark editing session window and re-opening displays the moved items
   correctly, and the contents correctly.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
As described in "Details". My Bookmark File is available if you cannot reproduce
this on others. Developer may email me privately for a URL to obtain it. Contains
personal Identity info that I don't wish to make pulic access.
Actual Results:  
Workaround - more steps to locate new entries, cutting and pasting. Restarting
edit window to redraw if GUI loses display of bookmark / folder data fields.

Expected Results:  
Created Folders / bookmarks at the correct place, in teh open child folder,
not one above in the parent.

Intentionally Blank. Oh - it isn't anymore. Never mind... Disregard
