23358 - Editor/Mail windows showing up in sidebar

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: Sidebar, defect, P3)

Description

[kinmoz]

In today's WinNT build, when I bring up an Editor or Mail window, I can see what
appear to be editor/mail windows embedded in the sidebar.

I'm not sure if this is related to bug #23352. or not.

I think it may have something to do with the fact that I have AIM listed in my
panels.rdf file and I'm running the mozilla build, not commercial.

If I remove AIM from the list, things are fine in the sidebar. If I leave AIM in
and remove everything else, things are fine. If I have AIM and something else in
the sidebar, I see the problem again.

Here's my panels.rdf file:

<RDF:RDF xmlns:RDF="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"

xmlns:NC="http://home.netscape.com/NC-rdf#">

  <RDF:Seq about="urn:sidebar:current-panel-list">
    <RDF:li resource="urn:sidebar:panel:im-panel" />
    <RDF:li resource="urn:sidebar:panel:whats-related" />

    <RDF:li resource="urn:sidebar:nc-panel:stocks" />

  </RDF:Seq>
</RDF:RDF>

Cc'ing mscott since he's seeing the problem too.

I also have aim in my  sidebar and am running a mozilla build.

This is a configuration problem that only developers should see. I am changing
the format of panels.rdf and that should fix the problem.

Kin, do u still see this problem?

Comment 8

I don't see this problem anymore ... the buddy list panel now shows up with the
message "Loading" and a spinning image that never stops ... this causes the
entire buddy panel to repaint constantly, but I guess that's a different bug?

Reassigning 50 Sidebar bugs to Matt.  I was told this was going to be done 
shortly about two months ago, but it clearly hasn't been.  I think that's long 
enough for all these bugs to remain assigned to nobody.

Feel free to filter all this spam into the trashcan by looking for this string 
in the message body: ducksgoquack
