Details

User-Agent: Opera/9.10 (X11; Linux i686; U; en) Build Identifier: 2.0.0.1 Trying to move bookmarks to other folders in the bookmark manager, I get no reaction (the intended goal folder is not outlined, and the bookmark isn't moved). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start firefox and bookmark organizer 2.Select a random bookmark and try to drag it to another folder 3.Release the mousebutton to put the bookmark in the intended folder. Actual Results: Intended goal folder is not outlined, and bookmark is not moved. Expected Results: The intended goal folder should be outlined, and bookmark moved there.
You could try starting Firefox in its safe-mode to exclude extension/theme problems. If it doesn't help you could reset the toolbars (an option when you enter the safe-mode), or you could try a re-install in a new empty folder or a new profile.
See also bug 367725 (d-n-d is generally horked on the reporter's machine).
I am seeing this same bug, also on Firefox 2.0.0.1 under KDE on Fedora 6. I get it even in safe-mode, and even under my "clean" username, which I keep just for such situations. I do NOT see this bug under 1.5.0.8. Launching from a terminal, I get an error message saying that the assertion "GTK_IS_WIDGET(widget)" has failed. There seem to be many other bugs that report this failure, so it may be that this one is related. But I don't get a crash here. It's just that drag and drop doesn't work. And yes, like the original reporter, I also see the problem on Thunderbird. Note please that I am NOT using Fedora RPMs but am downloading both Thunderbird and Firefox from mozilla.org.
I can reproduce the same on clean profile. what Richard Heck says means its the problem with redhat distribution of firefox and TB. But i am using FF and TB downloaded from Mozilla website ?? and waht about FF2 ? is there any workaround for this ?
I think its already fixed in 1.8.1.2...Might be in next patch https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=367203 I think you should mark as fixed now.
This bug is fixed long time ago!

FIXED is not the right resolution here, since there were no code changes made in this bug. Karianne, did you have a problem on your machine that you have corrected ? Use INVALID in that case. Otherwise this probably is a dupe of 367203.
Status: RESOLVED → UNCONFIRMED
Resolution: FIXED → ---
The bug seems to have appeared on my machine on upgrading GTK. Regressing fixes the bug, as noted in the link at comment #4. So someone should mark it as a duplicate of the fixed 367203.
