User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040626 Firefox/0.9.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040626 Firefox/0.9.1
The Designed for Windows XP specification requires that the default for File >
Open be the user's My Documents folder. Subsequent access to the dialog should
use the previously seen location.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Mozilla Firefox clean.
2. Start Firefox.
3. Click File > Open.
Actual Results:
The Firefox installation directory is open.
Expected Results:
The My Documents folder should be open.
To target the My Documents folder, pass CSIDL_PERSONAL to SHGetFolderPath. To
ensure compatibility in Windows 9x and Windows NT 4.0, the specification says to
link to SHGetFolderPath in Shfolder.dll, not the one in Shell32.dll.
This is requirement 3.1.
