Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Calendar :: General, defect)

Description

[Ray Little]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050414 Firefox/1.0.3
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050414 Firefox/1.0.3

Able to display Calendar (chrome://calendar/content/calendar.xul) in Firefox tab
window.  However, I can't make changes (e.g. create new event).  Also, sometimes
the calendar displays but isn't filled in until I take an action (e.g. move to
another month).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enter in url window: chrome://calendar/content/calendar.xul
2. Press return key
3. Try entering new event (click on New Event button)

Actual Results:  
Nothing happened.

Expected Results:  
Function exactly as it would if I opened Firefox and selected Tools | Calendar,
to open Calendar indepently (i.e. outside of Firefox tab windows).

I don't know if it was anticipated that Calendar would function in the way I'm
trying to use it but I feel strongly that it should be modified to work in a
tabbed window.  Currently, I have it in a tab window for easy viewing and open a
calendar (Tools | Calendar) when I need to make changes.

Sorry, but we do not support the Calendar extension in a tab window or the
sidebar or somewhere else.

The bugspam monkeys have been set free and are feeding on Calendar :: General. Be afraid for your sanity!
