Gervase Markham wrote: Don't bother marking bugs with the mostfreq keyword any more - http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/duplicates.cgi does the magic without needing this. A couple of questions... 1) Does this correctly account for dups of dups? eg Bug A has 20 dups Bug A is marked dup of Bug B (which previously had none) IMHO, the correct behavior would be for Bug B to appear on the list, with 21 dups. Is this what happens? 2) Couldn't this be accomplished more cleanly by adding a num_dups field to the bug itself? Then the only code changes necessary would be to set bug_b.num_dups += bug_a.num_dups + 1; whenever bug_a is marked dup of bug_b (with a little extra complexity if bug_b is already marked dup of something else). That would provide this functionality and also make it possible to add minimum/maximum num_dups to the query page, providing the abilities that other people in this thread have been asking for (and also making duplicates.cgi VERY easy to implement...)

Help! @ sign in POP3 Username
Greetings. I'm hoping someone can help here, as Netscape Support seem to be experiencing system problems at the current time, which mean my support request emails are getting bounced around in circles. Sorry if this post is off-topic, but I didn't know where else to look. Our local mail server uses POP3 usernames in the format [EMAIL PROTECTED] (as multiple domains are hosted on our servers) instead of the normal mailboxname . Problem is, Netscape Messenger only seems to accept single simple usernames to check accounts. This means each time we try and check email, it fails with an error message. Anyone know how I can send the actual username [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks in advance, and please respond to this group or else to [EMAIL PROTECTED] removing the NOSPAM header.

Re: mostfreq deprecated
1) Does this correctly account for dups of dups? eg Yes. 2) Couldn't this be accomplished more cleanly by adding a num_dups field to the bug itself? No, because if something is un-dupped you get trouble. I did think about this quite hard when I implemented it, honest :-) possible to add minimum/maximum num_dups to the query page, providing We already have this. Well, just about. duplicates.cgi has several parameters: changedsince - days ago for the Changed since column; lets you see what's been mostdupped recently maxrows - how many rows you want. If you are sorting by dup count, this provides min dup functionality. sortby - can be dup_count, bug_no and delta. Defines the sorting of the columns. Gerv
Re: General Question
What do you mean 'A Platform'? Thats pretty vague. It's a platform for what? Tip 1: Ignore JTK. :-) Mozilla is a web application platform; that is, you can create applications using standard web technologies such as HTML, XHTML, CSS, Javascript and the DOM and they will run under Mozilla. You can go up a level and create even more complex apps using XUL and XBL, but they will be Mozilla-specific. See http://www.mozdev.org for examples of what can be achieved. Gerv

How do I create a non-wrapping textarea in 4.01 strict?
Hi all! I've got what has to be a silly question, but I can't figure it out at the moment. I'm trying to create a valid HTML 4.01 STRICT document. In this document is a textarea that I do NOT want to have word wrapped. The problem is that mozilla insists on word wrapping no matter what I do unless I break the 4.01 strict rules. Here's what I see: If I leave the rows and cols attributes off of the textarea, mozilla will not wrap the text. However, rows and cols are required by 4.01 strict No matter what I do, if I put rows and cols attributes in the textarea, mozilla wraps the text. Even if I put rows=999 cols=9 As an FYI, I'm using stylesheets and absolute positioning to place the element on the screen. Am I missing something? What is the correct way of doing this. Thanks, David [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Popup error won't go away

There is no preferences box. The popup occurs each time I start Netscape. I did go into the Netscape preferences but don't see anything references a temporary directory or folder. Where should I look and for what? Thanks, brettr Before doing anything, go to Windows Explorer--Windows and look for a Temp folder.I am just guessing that you do not have one,after your hard drive work. For some reason,there is a folder called nscomm,which sounds a lot like Netscape Communicator.I never saw anything there,but it may be looking for it. I am working from Mozilla 0.9, and the preferences are different here,but,I do not recall any reference to a Temp or whatever. If nothing turns up,get the secnews netscape communicator Message Board.It is more appropriate for 4.7x stuff. It was at: http://www.ufaq.org but it had changed some to: http://www.ufaq.org/default.html Just click on rhe desired Message Board.Make sure that you change the port to 563 in the Newsgroup.Contact me at my address,if nothing works. -- Fulvio Perini Omaha,NE 68124 Definition of an upgrade:it fixes some problem,while creating new ones.

I was never asked to reboot Hey, why are you using Mozilla. I'm not actually. Can you believe it: I'm still using the Communicator 4.x series?!! I mean, how old and crusty is that?! Oh, and the IE6 preview, which works quite nicely. And in fact hasn't crashed on me once come to think of it I can't browse with more than 2 windows in IE6. Past two and it's illegal operation time. Couple of times it caused my entire OS to go down (Win 2k SP2). Not pretty It's so buggy and unstable and worthless. Amen. You forgot piggish. Go use IE. Go back to the Windows Update site every 3 days to get a fix for some new VB script vulnerability, or frame spoof, or some other hack that let's people format my drive or steal a credit card number Get the hell of the browser then. Don't complain about it and then use it, you freaking hypocrit Calm down, calm down, ya freaking hippie. Like I said, I'm not using it. Nobody is in fact, according to every web counter out there. Really. It's funny, cause m3dzone.com has a webcounter that is currently showing Mozilla with a 3% martket share. 3% for a product that isn't even finished, released, or being advertised ain't bad

JTK is a troll that does nothing but complain and bitch, and also on occasion has a tendancy to bend the truth or flat out lie. He always complains and says Mozilla sucks and they should just stop working on it now and give up and let IE win, etc. So I'm just pointing out if he is going to talk about how much it sucks constantly, but now he's downloading nightlies and using it he really oughta STFU already and stop being a hypocrit

Re: General Question
On Tue, 5 Jun 2001 22:14:03 -0500, Marc Leger [EMAIL PROTECTED] somehow managed to type: IE 6 is still beta. You can rant all you want once it's released. I doubt Microsoft will release 6 PREMATURELY like somebody. I doubt I will ever see the day when Billy Boy announces to the world, We had to release 6.0. Don't blame me, it was our marketing department's idea. Sorry for all the systems we hosed. Sorry, you've already seen it many times. The most apt example is Internet Explorer 4.0. It was buggy as all hell. Installing it was a perfect recipe to make your OS unstable, and often unrecoverable. But it was released because Marketing needed to tie the browser to the Operating System as soon as possible. Or look at the first cut of Windows 95, the operating system you had to reinstall every three months or face total meltdown. Or Windows 3.0. Or DOS 6.0. At the time Windows 2000 was released, Microsoft were already preparing the first fixpack. Point-zero releases of commercial software products are _always_ the point at which marketing steps in and says we can't wait for you to fix it any more, let's ship.[1] Many companies are now deliberately avoiding point-zero version numbers, just because of the stigma attached to them. Charles miller [1] Funnily enough, the two most egregious offenders I could think of are Microsoft and RedHat.

Everytime I view a web page that has a table and a hyper link, the text runs into the next table and I cant read the text on the end. At first I thought it was one of my preferences, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I am using Mandrake 8.0 and just upgraded to the newest build today and still no luck. Any clues?

I've used them all, FINISHED, betas available to the general public, and betas not available to the general public, on both the Win9x and WinNT series OSs, and none of them did any hosing of anything. Have you ever heard of IE 4.0? Also, remember this is about Mozilla. Not netscape 6. Ah yes, to-MAY-to, to-MAH-to. Let's call the whole thing off. You are claiming N6 was prematurely released. This is a mozilla group. Mozilla was not prematurely released. It has yet to be released Mozilla is not released. You can't sit there and say IE 6 is allowed to suck because it's still beta. Ah... IE6 doesn't suck though. Slight hole in your argument. It's bluescreened my twice today. That's twice IN ONE DAY more than Mozilla ever has It's beta, so is Mozilla. Yes, but Mozilla has been in beta for almost four years now, and still sucks, while IE6 is, hell, has it even been a year since 5.5, and does not suck. IE 6 is not a complete re-write from scratch. IE 6 is IE 4.0's code with some improvements and new features. Had it been a complete re-write, I bet since MS doesn't do open source it would be were Mozilla was 3 1/2 years ago In general, Mozilla has crashed about 5x more than IE6 on me. Gatorade sprays out nose Loking goood!!! - Chico BAHAHHAHHAHHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHHHAHAHAHAA!!! However, IE leads the way in bringing my whole system down in the field of about 6 to 0. Mozilla has never killed my OS. IE 6 has. IE 5.5 has. IE 5.0 has. I don't consider that acceptable for my web browser I don't consider that either a) truthful or b) acceptable for your computer system. If that's not an off-the-cuff fabrication, you have some serious crap hardware or something my friend. Like I said, I've used 'em all, and NOT ONCE has ANY IE killed my OS. A) It can't be crap hardware. It's a homebuilt, I know each and every piece in it. And if it were crap hardware, that would show up in Unreal Tournament, Allegiance, Mozilla, everything. Not just IE. IE lost me when they put it into my OS. Since it's tied into Windows, just opening an IE window runs the risk of me losing my whole OS to a crash. Netscape doesn't have this problem. Mozilla doesn't either. I wouldn't even mind if Windows just used IE as the default for things. Like I open a folder and it automatically started an instance of IE with that folder displayed. But it doesn't. IE is ALWAYS RUNNING. If I shut off every service and every process I can, and close every window and TSR, IE is still active. There is still a chance that a burp in it will make my entire system go bye bye. B) Ok. I've driven my car many times. I've never been killed in a car crash. So I guess everyone killed in a car crash (even if it's not their fault) is doing something wrong. Because I (ONE TEST CASE!) have never had a problem. That's the dumbest excuse I've ever heard. How do you use IE6? Do you just open it up and let it sit there at a blank page? Or do you open up 3 to 10 windows and actually use that thing called the world wide web?
