243246 - Get Info box forgets Status tab selection after showing folder

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Camino Graveyard :: Bookmarks, defect)

Description

[Brion Vibber]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8a) Gecko/20040510 Camino/0.7+

When a bookmark is selected in the bookmark manager, the Get Info box has 'Info'
and 'Status' tabs. When a folder is selected, there are no tabs.

Selecting a folder, then another item causes the second item to display with the
'Info' tab selected instead of remaining on (returning to) 'Status'. Selecting
one bookmark directly after another does not change which tab is selected, and
it is surprising that this is different. (It is particularly annoying using
keyboard navigation, since moving from one folder to another then requires
selecting it.)


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Bookmark Manager
2. Select a bookmark
3. Open 'Get Info' box
4. Click 'Status' tab
5. Click on a bookmark folder
6. Click on another bookmark item

Actual Results:  
When the second bookmark is selected, the Get Info box displays the 'Info' tab.

Expected Results:  
It should come up with the 'Status' tab, where I left it.

Confirmed using 2004050308 (v0.8b).

I imagine this is probably due to the fact that for some strange reason the
folder info view exists as a tab in the bookmark view. I haven't looked at the
code, but presumably there's weird view extracting/swapping going on. Bug 242650
is probably due to the same thing, so perhaps the views should be separated in
the .nib file.
