277665 - Forumzilla support broken in recent 1.8a daily builds

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Ben Shadwick]

Summary: 
I recently upgraded to a 1.8a6 daily build (circa Jan 8 2005) and noticed that
my list of Forumzilla feed subscriptions had been wiped, and that when I try to
Add new ones the "Enter feed location" dialog does not appear. 

Additional Info: 
I tried upgrading to the Jan 9 2005 1.8a6 daily build, and the problem still exists.

I tried downgrading to the official Mozilla 1.7 release and the problem does not
exist (i.e. although my subscription list is still empty, I can at least now add
new subscriptions because the "Enter feed location" dialog now appears when I
hit Add).

Replicating: 
1. Install forumzilla from http://www.melez.com/forumzilla/forumzilla052.xpi
2. Open MailNews main window
3. Select Edit->Feed Subscriptions from the menu bar
4. Click Add

A dialog with title "Prompt" and message "Enter feed location:" should appear.
If it doesn't, then you've replicated my problem.

Notes: 
I saw an error message in the JavaScript Console, but didn't think to copy it
down (sorry).

we don't guarantee to not break extensions between releases unless they only use
frozen APIs

http://forumzilla.mozdev.org/ specifically mentions a more recent version with
"support for the latest Thunderbird and Mozilla releases"
