cache and onload events (repost)
Can anyone confirm if this is the correct newsgroup for cache and load event issues.? Any idea if a) there a difference between loading a page via the address/location bar and using the reload button. b) do image load events (re) fire if the image is already in cache when reload is invoked? c) are images verified with the host if the browser is resized (ie. later version)?

perldap problems
Firstly apologies of this is the wrong group; I tried to use dejanews to find a suitable group but its been taken over today by google - it indicated the npm.discussion group ... but unlike dejanews which DID permit posting/replying to groups, this new google rubbish doesn't... and I my usenet service (mailandnews) that I use doesn't seem to carry that group. OK... my problem... I've been pointed in the direction of perldap as a possible solution for our users to update their unix login passwords which are stored in an ldap database (Netscape Directory Server 4.12). The LDAP SDK for C we have is version 4.1. The problem I find is that if I compile and install perldap (v 1.4.1) on one box (Sol 7, gnu make 3.78.1, gcc 2.81, perl 5.004_04) and try and run ldappasswd.pl (in the examples directory) it coredumps when I try and run it, wheras on another box (exactly the same OS, utilities and versions) it doesn't!! FWIW the box it coredumps on is the actual server itself, but I dunno if that is at all relevant to the issue. I also have a problem in that on the box on which ldappasswd.pl does work I enter the following command (as root, trying to alter the password of user ian) and receive the following response # ./ldappasswd.pl -h lister.nm -b o=lister.nm -D cn=dmanager -w passwd ian New password: new password New password (again): new password No such user: ian Now .. the user ian does exist and I can login using that name!! I get the same response if I use a fully qualified name i.e. cn=ian,ou=People,o=lister.nm If I login as user ian and try that command I get the same response and if I drop the final "ian" the response I get is that there is no such user : cn=dmanager!! Finally, during the perldap compile/install, when running perl Makefile.PL the question is raised whether to use LDAPv3 Developer Kit... well, as stated above we are using version 4.12... so should the answer to this be yes (as in we are using an SDK) or no (in that we are not using a v3 SDK) Any ideas?

Asa, I really don't think I could have labelled my posting as sarcasm

Don't try to make me the scapegoat here. There is a problem with the
system: it is configured such that issues are "rewarded" for being
duplicated. That reward inevitably comes at the expense of other
issues. What I'm proposing would be a leveller. I don't know if it

Sorry I missed the sarcasm. I don't see the reward as clearly as you
do.
You seem to see the potential for abuse, and that is a direct result of
the availability of a reward. No reward == no potential for abuse. ("No
potential for abuse" doesn't mean people won't make mistakes--of course
they will, and that is unavoidable.)
The most frequent list was not set up to somehow raise the priority
of the bugs that end up there (and I doubt that it does or bugs would
move from that list a lot faster). The most frequent list was set up to
help naive bug reporters avoid filing the duplicate in the first place.
That's reasonable. My previous thinking was that a functional voting
system would fill this role; now I'm not so sure. There may be a real
need to distinguish duplicated issues from "popular" issues
People who want to abuse the system will find ways to do that. They will
find those means more often and faster with you drawing the map for
them.
So what means do you propose for raising visibility and fostering
discussion of problems that have the potential for abuse?
But I'm more concerned about the naive than the malicious and you're
misinforming them. Bugs do not get fixed faster because "no one wants
Bugzilla to get clogged with a bunch of duplicate bug reports".
Asa, the *second sentence* in my posting was, "Don't take what I'm about
to say *too* literally." And here you are, pointing out problems with a
strictly literal interpretation of my remarks. How do you expect me to
respond? You really think I don't know there are problems with such an
interpretation? Why do you think I prefaced my comments as I did?
My posting was intended to make a point about how impotent the voting
system is. Limiting the number of votes per product artificially limits
the number of issues upon which users can register an easily-indexed
opinion. The system is sufficiently broken that duplicate reports
actually give users *more freedom* to register that kind of opinion than
the voting system.
And, yes, I'm quite aware that weeding out duplicate reports is a labor-
intensive process. *That's why I think the voting system should be
improved to provide the means that are currently only provided by
duplicate reports.*
Now, is anyone actively subverting the system as I described? Outside of
extreme cases (Bugzilla accounts with an unusually high number of
duplicate reports), I suspect it's impossible to say. What about naivete?
If the voting system were made more functional, could it then be made
more accessible and engaging to naive users, thus potentially heading off
duplicates? I suspect it could.
If
anything, this slows the fixing process down. Those same people who
waste hours a day resolving duplicates and verifying fixes against
duplicates are the folks that could be making tests and performing
systematic functional testing on the product. In my experience a
regression (and most of the bugs ammassing duplicates are regressions)
is fixed much faster if it is caught right after it happens. If we're
too busy trying to keep Bugzilla from getting "clogged with a bunch of
duplicate bug reports" then we don't have as much time to be proactive
in our QA process and catch those problems as soon as they arise or
help development track the problem down by creating simplified test
cases. I feel totally confident saying that bugs will get fixed faster
when QA has the time to be proactive instead of reactive.
Hrm. This is part of the point of my proposal. I think if you had really
read my posting as the sarcasm it was labeled as, you wouldn't have
arranged these comments as an argument against mine.
A vote is useful, and the information that a bug is high profile is
useful. But neither of those pieces of information are as useful as a
capapable person actually working to identify the root of the problem
quickly and provide a developer with clear and helpful information.
Obviously. But I think votes could be made a good deal more useful than
they are now. Furthermore, their current castrated state stands to come
at the expense of developer time by means of duplicate reports.

What's the deal with profiles?
Used to be, like Netscape version 4, you could set up a profile and direct where the cache would be kept. This was helpful, because I could synchronize my bookmarks and history between two computers easily, without dragging along 10 meg. worth of cache. Now Mozilla insists not only on continuing to place the cache in my user directory, but keeps manufacturing more levels of cryptic directory names to hide the profile under. What's the point of this? Why can't it be configurable (i.e., cache location and the name of the user directory)? It's getting to where I'm thinking of regressing to Netscape 4.75. --- Mike Koenecke to reply, change "nowhere" to "home"
Re: So where is 0.8?
I assume it's delayed. No big deal if it incorporates all the new enhancements but gets rid of recent regressions and instabilities (the latest nightlies have all been hit or miss). Can someone inside the project let the rest of know when to check back for it? I'm not 'inside the project', but I would expect it to be release within the next 2-3 days. Look on the ftp site under the nightly builds. The latest version there says 0.8 They always do (i.e., carry the next build number). Not anymore. It seems since the Netscape 6 branch, the trunk builds have had the -Mtrunk suffix instead of the next Milestone number. -- Micah Harwell Industrial Techware http://www.industrialtechware.com/

In your profile directory (that with the cryptic name) you have a file named prefs.js. You have to change a setting named "browser.cache.directory". Maybe a bug should be filed on the lack of more user friendly way of changing it. I cannot find one on bugzilla. Jacek

netscape-6.01
Hi, a couple of weeks ago I tried netscape-6.0 under Linux. The software was simple unusable. Should I try 6.01? I can hardly imagine that a lot of bugs were fixed in a couple of weeks. Right now I use 4.76 and it is stable. -- Zsolt Koppany Intland GmbH www.intland.com Schulze-Delitzsch-Strasse 16 D-70565 Stuttgart Tel: +49-711-7871080 Fax: +49-711-7871017
