It appears the javascript prompt() is no longer working.
When its used alone, there's no error but no prompt either.
If an alert() is put before and after, two errors are generated:

Error: [Exception... "'Permission denied to get property XULElement.accessKey' when calling method: [nsIDOMXULLabelElement::accessKey]"  nsresult: "0x8057001e (NS_ERROR_XPC_JS_THREW_STRING)"  location: "JS frame :: http://www.matthias-keller.ch/bugzilla/prompt.html :: <TOP_LEVEL> :: line 4"  data: no]

I'm using Seamonkey 1.5a rv:1.9a1 build 2006032309 and I get a "wow aaa" confirm dialog and a "before" and "after" alert: the testcase works for me.

Version -> 1.8 Branch

I get the JS exceptions but it still works.  The exceptions are bug 261423.

WFM now with 1.0.1
