Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Toolkit :: Add-ons Manager, defect)

[Robert King]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.8.0.2) Gecko/20060308 Firefox/1.5.0.2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.8.0.2) Gecko/20060308 Firefox/1.5.0.2

I've just updated to 1.8.0.2 and Resizable Textarea is now not compatible.
I can't remember why I installed it, so thought I would visit the home page to check whether to uninstall or wait for an update.  I can't do this from the extensions manager and will have to search for it instead.  There is no good reason to disable this option for disabled extensions.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install an extension in an old version that doesn't have a compatible version for 1.8.0.2
2. Update to 1.8.0.2
3. Open extension manager

Please supply a link to the version of the extension you have installed... chances are the author didn't supply a home page in their extension's metadata.

Resizable Textarea doesn't have a home page defined in its metadata. resolved -> invalid.
