315396 - search drop down menu shows « (null) » when first used with an empty URL location

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 130462

(SeaMonkey :: Search, defect)

Description

[SR]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; fr; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; fr; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915

the first time drop down menu is shown, after I start mozilla, a search is
proposed with what looks like a null pointer "correctly" printed.

If it matters, I have associated google.fr as search engine via the GUI.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.launch mozilla
2.enter nothing in the URL bar
3.look at the drop down menu and read « (null)»
4.enter something in the URL bar and clear it
5.look at the drop down menu and read « »



Expected Results:  
we should read the same thing every time, and probably not (null).

do you see this with a clean profile?
Also try a more recent build (1.7.x is only taking security fixes):

yes, thanks for pointing to it.
I've searched through the bugs before reporting, but obviously failed to do it correctly.
