Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: Preferences, defect, P2)

Description

[hermann.flacke]

I tried to change my preferences Edit/Preferences:

That's the error message:

*** going to save page datea for tag: pref-appearance
JavaScript Error: TypeError: fields has no properties
ULR: chrome://global/content/widgetStateManager.js
LineNo: 97

The next error message:

nsXULKeyListenerImpl::Init()
146167912 : Focus occurred on: Window with a XUL doc (happens twice)
Speicherzugriffsfehler


A Speicherzugriffsfehler is something like a memory fault

The JavaScript error reported is just a js exception resulting from trying to
call a function on a null object; there's something wrong with a piece of js
code that gets in this case.  This is *not* a problem with the javascript
engine.

Hm.  Maybe a problem with the JS code in the user interface that talks to prefs?

Reassigning to prefs.

Didn't this same problem happen to Ben last week with the Profile Manager?  And
do we have to fix this for beta?

Bulk move of all Pref UI component bugs to new Preferences component.  Pref UI 
component will be deleted.

if it still don't work
delete your prefs.js and see if it works.
