Confirmed on both FF and IE. This seems to affect only v2.18, tip is working.
For some reason the generated page does not include the productmenu.js that
contains the definition for the selectProduct function.

It seems this same problem also affects Request Tracker (request.cgi). Problem
is a result of incorrect backport of bug 241814 into v2.18. It uses
javascript_urls which was added only to v2.20 in bug 251469.

We either have to backport javascript_urls to 2.18 or partially backout the
patch that changed productmenu.js inclusion in the two affected templates.

Attachment: Add javascript_urls to header template, V1

This is a backport of the javascript_urls parameter handling for the header
template that was implemented for tip in bug 251469. This patch includes kiko's
burn fix in that bug. I tested this and now the productmenu.js is correctly
included in both request.cgi and editflagtypes.cgi. Component filtering works.

Looks good. r=myk

If I'm reading this correctly, this problem ONLY affects 2.18, and does not
affect the trunk.  Is that correct?  (Denying approval for trunk on that basis).

Those have been removed for trunk (see bug 282999) but not from v2.18 branch. I
used it in my patch so the inserted script tags are same as those generated for
javascript param.

Yes. Trunk is not affected because javascript_urls param is already in it and so
the previous fix in bug 241814 works nicely there.
