59567 - Title bar not set at all when locale not supported by Xlib

Status: VERIFIED WONTFIX

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, defect, P3)

Description

[Stephan Jaensch]

As of the latest nightly build (20001107), Mozilla does not set the title bar at
all. Open a blank Mozilla window and you will see "No Title" in the titlebar and
only the Mozilla icon in the taskbar. Load a page (e.g. www.mozilla.org), now
you should see mozilla.org in the title bar as this is what is enclosed in the
<title> tag in the HTML document. Still no change to the title bar.

WFM Linux (RH 6.2, KDE) trunk build of 11/08.
I loaded about:blank and then www.mozilla.org, and the title bar was
correctly set.

I tracked down the problem now. I am using Debian Woody with XFree 4.0.1.
Yesterday came an update and with the new packages I get the following warning:

Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C

(I've set LC_CTYPE to de_DE.ISO-8859-1). Changing the locale to C does solve the
problem with Mozilla, but since other apps also produce this warning and
nevertheless set the titlebar right I don't know who is to blame here. Is this
still a Mozilla bug or has it to be marked invalid?

Changing summary to reflect the above.

locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C

is this error originating from mozilla?

Comment 4

[Stephan Jaensch]

No, this seems to be a toolkit warning message, in this case from Gdk, that the
locale is not supported by the running X server. If I launch a
QT/KDE-Application, I get a similar error:

Qt: Locales not supported on X server

Mozilla is the only program which seems to have a problem with it.

nav triage team:

Would be nice to fix, but won't get to it for beta1, marking nsbeta1-

[Chris McAfee]

This is an X11 config problem not a mozilla problem.
Marking invalid, please reopen if you think Mozilla
should handle this situation better.
