Gecko/20000601 Open some page [www.mozilla.org/ is my page of choice, it had <html><head></head><body></body></html> (w/ stuff inside)] in composer select edit mode: Show All Tags [or Normal, or Edit Preview] Click Format Click Page Title and Properties. "Enter html source for elements and attributes to insert under the <HEAD> tag:" The edit box contains <BODY ...>...</BODY> Example: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-5">
The HTML output routines have been messed up lately. Akanna has been fixing those problem -- may already be fixed, since I can't find an appropriate bug to dup to.

Somebody broke output of selection only a week or so ago. That's bug 39528, which is currently on mjudge's list though I think jfrancis was planning to look at it (I don't know the current status). Adding dependency and assigning back to Charley to check it after 39528 is fixed, or to decide whether to dup it.

2000062108 win32 talkback I'm closing this bug fixed. The parser is sort of mangling meta content, but that's for another bug. Charles you probably should have checked this bug when you fixed its blocker.

Page properties text box has major problems -- you can't insert into the <head> region -- now covered by bug 41869.

It seems that this bug was fixed by replacing the ability to edit the <HEAD> contents from the Page Title and Properties dialog with the ability to edit it from the "HTML Source" pane. The Page Title and Properties dialog now says "Advanced users: To edit other contents of the <head region, use "HTML Source" in the View Menu or Edit Mode Toolbar." I just verified that I can edit the <HEAD> region from the "HTML Source" pane in my Win32 10/27/00 Netscape_20000922_BRANCH build.
