54641 - error adding second email To line: awGetPopupElement has no properties

Status: CLOSED WORKSFORME

(MailNews Core :: Composition, defect, P3)

Description

[KerryGinn]

In nightly build M18 Mac PPC 2000092808, got the following JavaScript error.

ERROR: awGetPopupElement(top.MAX_RECIPIENTS) has no properties
Source File: chrome://messenger/content/messengercompose/addressingWidgetOverlay.js
Line: 333   Column: 0

Steps:
0) Created a new Email account.
1) Selected New Message

The background for the To: line select menu was not rendered.

2) I clicked in the area where the background should be.

The background was rendered in blue.

3) I clicked in the area for entering an email address.

The background for the To: line select menu was rendered in gray.

4) Completed an email address in the To line and pressed RETURN to generate a
second To line.

Second To line was not created.  Error message was logged every time I pressed
to RETURN for the first To line. I was able to complete the rest of the message
and send it.

This undesirable behavior was repeatable with subsequent compose windows.

This undesirable behavior did not occur if I left the background area alone.

Use Mac PPC 266, OS 8.6, Open Transport, Modern Theme

Unable to reproduce with 2000102008 mozilla trunk build on Mac OS9.  I tried it
in both themes with the javascript console open and saw no visible errors and
saw no javascript errors reported.
