Description

[Tracy Walker [:tracy]]

Seen on Firefox trunk builds:
Windows 2005-05-18-07-trunk
Mac 2005-05-18-07-trunk

-Click on the Search toolbar twisty to bring up the Search engine list
-Click Add Engines..
-In the resulting web page, select Alta Vista.
-Click okay to the subsequent Installation dialog
-Click on the Search toolbar twisty to bring up the Search engine list

tested results:
the Alta Vista search engine is placed below Add Engines.. (though sometimes it
takes quite a while to occur...initially it may appear the search engine isn't
added at all.)

Expected reuslts:
Alta Vista is added to the list of search engines

-select Alta Vista 

tested results:
Alta Vista becomes the default engine, but it is missing from the list. Two
seperator lines are above Add Engines

Expected results:
Alta Vista becomes the default engine and remains in the list.

Restart firefox and return to the searh engine list.

tested results: Alta Vista is now properly listed among the other search engines.

The icon did appear (below "Add Engines"), but the text "Altavista" only did
after I hovered over that area.
