272473 - drag and drop of rss feed url from safari fails

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 737115

(MailNews Core :: Feed Reader, defect)

Description

[Asa Dotzler [:asa]]

This test passes with Firefox but fails with Safari. 

(A) Add as toplevel subscription.

   1. Have a browser open to a page containing a link to an RSS subscription.
For example, http://slashdot.org.
   2. Drag the RSS subscription link from the browser windows onto the RSS
Account (in folder pane) in the Thunderbird window.

(B) Add to exisiting subscription.

   1. Make sure you already have at least one RSS subscription in your RSS account.
   2. Open your browser to a page containing a link to an RSS subscription. For
example, http://slashdot.org.
   3. Drag the RSS subscription link from the browser windows onto an RSS
subscription (in folder pane) in the Thunderbird window.


With Safari the drop seems to not happen or Tbird fails to recognize it. No
messages in the JS console.

This is still affecting drag and drop of rss feeds from safari to Thunderbird. see bug 256777 for a variety of links to attempt.
