70593 - "Edit\Preference\Navigator" will not accept changes

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 66118

(SeaMonkey :: Preferences, defect)

Description

[Martin Lippert]

When altering settings under the Edit\Preferences\Navigator menu item, the
"Preferences" dialog windows will not accept an "OK". Only way out is to press
"Cancel" thus discarding any change made.

Problem does not occur, when altering other settings in the Edit\Preference
dialog window...

Please read the component descriptions before picking one ("Unless you're a 
Mozilla developer, your bug probably doesn't belong in this component").

"Preferences: Backend" means in particular *NOT* problems with the dialog which 
is by definition FRONT-end.

Martin, could you have a look at bug 66118 if your bug is the same?

Comment 3

To Oliver Klee:

After having read bug #66118, I must conclude, that it is not the same.

It is actually possible to save changes in the preferences menu, in opposition
to bug #66118, so long as you don't make any changes to the navigator settings.

To [e-mail]:

Oops. please have me excused... I'll remember that, the next time :-)

tested with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; 0.9) Gecko/20010228

sorry i had no problem to press ok if i made any changes to the navigator 
settings. this only won't work if you switch to history and switch back to any 
other option. for me this is a dup of bug 66118.

reporter: which mozilla version did you use ?

Navigating into Prefs->Navigator categories (e.g. Language, History) are the
usual causes for not accepting "OK" button. Well, I think tracking bug #40891
covers this case completely.
