224881 - Switching sidebar tabs erases search engine category list

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(SeaMonkey :: Search, defect)

Description

[Davide Baroncelli]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007

If I define search engine category list entries, and then switch the sidebar
component (i.e.: from "search" to "what's related" and back again) the list is
erased.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Define an entry in the "edit categories" dialog for search engines
2. click on a different tab than "search" for the sidebar
3. check if the entry still exists

Actual Results:  
the entry was erased

Expected Results:  
the entry should have still been there

this is maybe connected to the other search engine category bug I related (when
the dialog is loaded, the list is always empty even if previous items have been
defined).
