Description

[Miles]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.4) Gecko/20060516 SeaMonkey/1.0.2 Mnenhy/0.7.4.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.4) Gecko/20060516 SeaMonkey/1.0.2 Mnenhy/0.7.4.0

Updated from SM 1.0.1 to 1.0.2.  Now when in BM Mgr and click or double click on a bookmark it does not open.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Open Bookmark Manager.
2.  On a bookmark, click, or double click, or right click and choose open in new window or new tab or open.

Actual Results:  
Nothing happens

Expected Results:  
Expected to open the site in Navigator.

This is of particular importance since searching bookmarks has not been repaired since far back in Netscape days, and it doesn't tell you where the bookmark is located.

Having many extensions too numerous to list here, including Multizilla, Mnenhy, no script, and adblock.

Do you see any errors in the Javascript Console (tools->web dev->JS console)

Can you try without the extensions installed?  I don't see the problem with 1.0.2.

How did you install? Deinstall Seamonkey, install into a new empty directory and then install extensions one by one?
Or did you just install ontop, install all extensions without restarting browser when asked to and then after restarting this bug surfaced?

I would recommend to deinstall extensions using mnenhy, check if bookmarks are working, deinstall seamonkey, reinstall seamonkey into a new empty directory and then install extensions one by one, restart browser and check bookmarks working after each single extension install.
Long ago Multizilla has been causing lots of trouble. Do you really need it for Seamonkey? Firefox needs or needed extensions, Seamonkey has lots of preferences in Edit->Preferences->Navigator->TabbedBrowsing.

Have no additional input as have changed to FF & TB and no longer using SM.  Since no on else has found the same problem, perhaps you want to kill this bug?
