79891 - "copy link location" doesn't work in FTP browser

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 77171

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, defect)

Description

[Hubert Feyrer]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; NetBSD 1.5.1_BETA i386; en-US; rv:0.9)
Gecko/20010509
BuildID:    000000000000

Open a FTP url, and try to copy the link location of a file.
Paste somewhere, and notice that the copy had no effect, the contents
of the buffer that was stored before "copy link location" was selected
is pasted instead.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.open ftp://smaug.fh-regensburg.de/pub/NetBSD/
2.right-klick on e.g. mozilla-0.9.tgz
3.select "copy link location"
4.paste into some text editor/xterm

Actual Results:  the contents of the cut buffer before the "copy link location"
is pasted. 

Expected Results:  paste ftp://smaug.fh-regensburg.de/pub/NetBSD/mozilla-0.9.tgz

This is Mozilla 0.9 built on NetBSD 1.5.1_BETA. This worked fine in
0.8 and 0.8.1. Copying HTML URLs works fine in 0.9 too, just not in
FTP browser. 

I use Mozilla a lot to copy/paste links, and this is annoying to be
broken.

The ftp viewer has moved to an html-based interface.
