Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Toolkit :: Form Manager, defect)

Description

[Keith Vertrees]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686) Gecko/20040323 Galeon/1.3.7
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686) Gecko/20040323 Galeon/1.3.7

My .mozilla directory got corrputed, so I attempted to start fresh by:
a) Deleting $HOME/.mozilla
b) mozilla -CreateProfile <username>

After doing this, I cannot enter any data on any form (for example the Google
search line).  At first I thought this must be a security setting, but I could
find nothing that would allow me to submit form data.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Delete .mozilla
2. mozilla -CreateProfile <username>
3. Try doing a Google search in mozilla

Actual Results:  
Nothing

Expected Results:  
Submitted form data so that Google search happened

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
