 	select another Popup to be able to change the Size. 
2.  Preferences/Fonts The Size is not displayed

4.  Preferences/Search: The text after the clickbox for Search result is not 		
    always shown

I'm only seeing #3, and that's only the first time I go to the Mail and News 
panel. The actual edit field is fine. Surrounding static text seems to be not 
refreshed.

Note: 4 is Classic Skin only. I also see 3. Changing component to Themes.

Seeing wierdness in the languages prefs, the move up , move down buttons look 
strange.

Problems seen in current (12/07) trunk build:

Navigator:
1) Language prefs: the move up/down, add/remove & character coding popup menus
are offscreen on the right side.
2) Smart Browsing: almost half of the Location Bar Autocomplete panel is
offscreen on the bottom.
3) Internet Search: the Search using: popup menu is offscreen on the right side.

Mail and Newsgroups:
1) Message Composition: in Forwarding and Replying to Messages, the Then:
pulldown menu is offscreen on the right side.

These problems almost make the prefs dialog a joke. They were present in the
final release of Netscape 6.00 (not a very good first impression). The default
size of the preferences dialog should be sufficient so that all information can
be obtained and options set without resizing the dialog each time.

These problems are specific to the Modern2 theme. The prefs appear normally when
using the Classic theme.

I went over all of the points listed in this bug and I'm unable to replicate any 
of them now in mac classic except for some visual wierdness in the Languages 
panel which I will fix now and post a patch here.
