347801 - Cmd-D/"Add Page to Bookmarks..." does nothing when Bookmark Manager is open in other tab with no history

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 347111

(Camino Graveyard :: Bookmarks, defect)

Description

[Peter Jaros (:peeja)]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.1b1) Gecko/20060805 Camino/1.0+
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.1b1) Gecko/20060805 Camino/1.0+

Preliminary note: Unlike in bug 302614, if about:bookmarks is up and there is no page before it in back history, for me pressing Cmd-D flashes the Bookmarks menu but does nothing.  Selecting "Add Page to Bookmarks..." also does nothing.  (In that bug, Cmd-D in the Bookmark Manager with no previous page bookmarked about:bookmarks.)

However, when about:bookmarks is open with no previous page *in another tab*, Cmd-D and "Add Page to Bookmarks..." have the same (non-)effect.  Closing that tab allows bookmarking in the other tabs again.  Having the Bookmark Manager open in another tab with a previous page in the tabs history also allows bookmarking normally (except that Cmd-D in BM bookmarks the previous page, as per bug 302614).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open any URL.
2. In a new tab in the same window, open about:bookmarks.
3. In the original tab, press Cmd-D or choose "Add Page to Bookmarks..."

Actual Results:  
Nothing happens.  On keyboard shortcut, "Bookmarks" menu blinks to signify that a menu item has been chosen.

Expected Results:  
Bookmark sheet should appear.

This is clearly connected to bug 302614, and may or may not be considered a duplicate of it.
