Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 406646

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[Jimmy]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.2) Gecko/2008091620 Firefox/3.0.2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.2) Gecko/2008091620 Firefox/3.0.2

On Firefox 3, Clicking on the 'Bookmarks' button, at the main menu bar, will open the "Page Bookmarked" dialog instead of displaying the regular bookmark drop-down.

If the user tries again, then the bug will not show. Thus, it's intermittent.



Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Close Firefox 3.0
2. Open Firefox 3.0
3. Click the 'Bookmarks' button at the main menu bar
4. Notice that the "Page Bookmarked" dialog is displayed
Actual Results:  
Clicking on the 'Bookmarks' button displays the "Page Bookmarked" dialog.

Expected Results:  
Clicking on the 'Bookmarks' button should display the regular bookmark drop-down.


This bug is intermittent, however, the steps to reproduce this bug, that I provided, will always show this issue.

This bug appeared to be fixed in 3.1 Beta 2, but has come back in 3.1 Beta 3.

will be probably fixed for b4, it's already fixed on trunk. b2 and b3 have no difference about that.

Bug 451915 - move Firefox/Places bugs to Firefox/Bookmarks and History. Remove all bugspam from this move by filtering for the string "places-to-b-and-h".

In Thunderbird 3.0b, you do that as follows:
Tools | Message Filters
Make sure the correct account is selected. Click "New"
Conditions: Body   contains   places-to-b-and-h
Change the action to "Delete Message".
Select "Manually Run" from the dropdown at the top.
Click OK.

Select the filter in the list, make sure "Inbox" is selected at the bottom, and click "Run Now". This should delete all the bugspam. You can then delete the filter.
