Description

[skierpage]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050910 Firefox/1.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050910 Firefox/1.4

I enabled software update for nightlys, Help > Check for Updates worked well but
in the dialog it presents the
"View more information about this update" 
hyperlink didn't do anything.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. I followed the instructions in
http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=318195 to change my
channel-prefs.js to check for nightly updates.

2. Help > Check for Updates presented a Software Update "Update Available" dialog.
3. I clicked the "View more information about this update" link.
3. The install dialog 

Running Firefox 1.5beta, I followed the instructions in 
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Nothing.  no new window or tab.  No errors in the JavaScript Console.  My cursor
remained the hyperlink pointing hand.

Right-clicking on it did nothing.

Expected Results:  
Clicking the hyperlink should provide details or a "No details available"

If I click "Download & Install Now >>" I very briefly get a progress dialog. 
That has a similar "Details" hyperlink.  That didn't seem to work either, though
I only had a second to click it.
