67450 - autocompletion pops up empty address list

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 67435

(MailNews Core :: Composition, defect)

Description

[Christopher Blizzard (:blizzard)]

If I type in a partial address in the mail composition window the popup window
that pops up that's supposed to have addresses in it is a little 1x1 box that is
empty.  Build is from 02/02/2001 about 2 am eastern time.

I see this on Windows NT 4.0, build 2001020204, marking XP.

The error may be general:
I see it in autocomlete too, and first time i click on an attachment in mailnews.

This error message displays when there are several matches to autocomplete and
the tiny empty box shows
up:************************************************************

oops: the error message is the one you see when browser URL-bar shows the empty box
Build 2001020206 and a few builds back.

I also see this bug... Mac debug build from today.
I'm not sure what component this belongs in but it's not specific to mail compose.

I'm almost 100% positive it's the nav bug, I see the same 1px box in the URL 
bar of browser.

stephend: URL-bar also reported in bug 67435

This bug is not limitd to autocomplete popups - I'm seeing the same problem
occur with the popups associated with menulists.  For an example, fire up
composer, and see menu Insert > Table.  Click on the menulist that says "% of
Window" and you'll see an empty menulist.  There are several other menulists
around the app that exhibit this same behavior.  In all cases, the exception
that RKAa posted below shows up in the console, so they must be all related.

ducarroz probably shouldn't own this bug -- somebody's checkin yesterday caused
this.
