60015 - Autocomplete drop-down only applies first item

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, defect, P3)

Description

[Ari Pollak]

To reproduce: With autocomplete enabled, enter the beginning of a URL which will
return more than 1 match, therefore bringing down the menu of possible
completions. If you try clicking (with the mouse) on any of the entries except
the first, nothing happens.

yep, i see this using 2000.11.13.08-trunk opt comm bits on the three main
platforms. blake/radha/claudius, is this a known issue? dunno who the owner is
for this...change it if needed. thx!

XP Apps/radha had a similar (identical?) bug 52457
"autocomplete not active in urlbar *only* for modern theme"

Comment 4

[Ari Pollak]

bug 52457 was for the entire autocomplete not working, not just the drop-down
list under certain conditions.

ducarroz owns the autocomplete widget in which the described behavior will fall.
Assigning to him.

[Bradley Baetz]

Given bug 51910, autocomplete doesn't appear worth it.

For some reason, the patch I did checkin in the RTM Branch for this problem (see
bug 55179) did not fully make its way into the trunk or has been owervritten by
the lastest checkin in autocomplete.xml.

The fix is to reapply the patch for bug 55179

[Jean-Francois Ducarroz]

timeless accidently back out my fix with his last checkin.

mass-verifying claudius' Fixed bugs which haven't changed since 2001.12.31.

if you think this particular bug is not fixed, please make sure of the following
before reopening:

a. retest with a *recent* trunk build.
b. query bugzilla to see if there's an existing, open bug (new, reopened,
assigned) that covers your issue.
c. if this does need to be reopened, make sure there are specific steps to
reproduce (unless already provided and up-to-date).

thanks!
