355419 - To addon search pages (elsewhere too) add version compatibility search (selectable tree)

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 347202

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Public Pages, defect)

Description

[roy andrea crabtree]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20060918 Firefox/2.0
Build Identifier: Web pages addons searches

Restricting extensions/themes to compatibility is important.  Right now you have to read the extension comments to see if it asserts that it is compatible.  If you add in a selection drop down menu, with multiple select, then the user can select which versions of the application it should be compatible with.  At least to the extent that _all_ or _any_ of them should be among the list selected.
---
Otherwise the user has to page through 50-100 entries looling

Reproducible: Always




More complex selection would be the equivalent of a MS Windows style selection tree; or a backup file selection setup with predicates, or a cross of these: QBE/QBF SQL table presentation style (Firefox 1.5 AND Thunderbird 1.5 compatible).
