In FF 2.0.0.12 on W2K, if you drag and drop an HTML A element from the rendered page, onto the Bookmark Toolbar, a bookmark is added to the toolbar.

This behaviour does not work in current beta 2008042906. No bookmark is created after the drop happens. Although a place marker is displayed suggesting where the drop will happen before you drop the link, which is removed when the drop happens.

There are a large number of other bugs relating to drag and drop within the Bookmark organizing tool itself filed in Bugzilla (428411 414200), this may be a duplicate of those without being familiar with the code it is hard to say. However it is clearly a case that needs testing when those bugs are fixed.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Visit any page with simple link
2. Drag link to Bookmark toolbar
3. Drop link where desired
Actual Results:  
No bookmark is made

Expected Results:  
Bookmark should be made using anchor text for label
