...maybe just "Toolbar Items"? Or "Personal Toolbar Items"?
What I have thought about is "Personal Bookmark Items", which is about 
as long as the current one and goes better in line with the current name 
of the toolbar, though still pointing to bookmarks.


Maybe even just "Personal Bookmarks", but that could be too little precise.


I have to disagree. Generally speaking, ALL bookmarks are "personal"
inasmuch as they are a personal customization, and the ones in the
toolbar aren't any more "personal" than the other ones.


Sorry, you're forgetting that some programs (including one that shall 
remain nameless) come with a built-in set of bookmarks ("favorites"), 
and those cannot realistically be called "personal."


I've been upgrading my installations of Netscape, Mozilla, and SeaMonkey 
for so long that I've forgotten whether our programs come with any 
built-in bookmarks.


For me, the confusing bit here is "items," which strikes me as 
meaningless clutter. In "toolbar items" I understand the necessity, but 
in "bookmark items" it looks like what the Korean grammarians call a 
"count word." You see, they don't normally mark their nouns for number, 
but if you want to say something like "two books" you say "two volume of 
book," just as we say "two pieces of advice" instead of "two advices."


Anyway, I find "Personal Toolbar Items" perfectly acceptable, and 
"Personal Bookmarks" perfectly acceptable as well.


If you said "Bookmark Toolbar Items," I would understand it as "items on 
the bookmark toolbar," which makes sense. I don't see how to make sense 
of "Toolbar Bookmark Items."



What about something like "Quick Bookmarks"? That's fairly descriptive
-- they are bookmarks, but they are easier to access (and therefore
quicker) because they are in a toolbar.


To me that would suggest speed/ease of creation, not of access. But YMMV.

When Stefan designed the new default theme for Mac, he decided that the

just reverses the function of that bit.
I'd be much happier if that was a pref one could set with toolbar

Robert Kaiser

Robert,
Thanks for the insight.

The .css hack does work and also restores the rollover highlighting as
well. Although the grippy style could be enhanced a bit, it's really not
that bad.

The other theme bug that I had mentioned in the original posting had to
do with incorrect Personal Toolbar bookmark overflow handling at the
right margin overlapping the chevron overflow menu icon. This seems to
be unique to the Default Theme as the Modern theme doesn't exhibit this
behavior.

There are a number of chevron-related Bugzilla entries although it's not
clear if they are related to this. Is there a similar .css hack that can
address this ? Maybe box model resizing ?



I can't seem to get the userChrome.css addition to work.

Lee

Lee & Phillip:
Here's what I use in the userChrome.css:

/* add the toolbar grippy to the default theme */
toolbargrippy { display: -moz-box !important; }

FWIW - I also have this entry:
/* widen the hotspot for splits between folder pane and message pane in
mail */
#folderpane-splitter { width: 3px !important; }

Like all overrides, they to follow the @namespace entry line (it's the

Request to Change Home Page

2009-12-30 Thread David E. Ross
SeaMonkey 2.0.1

I moved the Home button from my Personal toolbar to the Navigation
toolbar.  Usually, selecting the Home button does indeed return me to my
desired home page, which is my bookmarks file bookmarks.html.

Sometimes, however, selecting the Home button results in a dialogue
popup.  The title bar on the popup is "Set Home Page".  The text is "Do
you want this document to be your new home page?"  Below the text are
two buttons: "Set Home Page" and "Cancel".  I can't tell if the popup is
an internal SeaMonkey item or generated by the Web page I'm leaving.

My preferences are set "Block unrequested popup windows".  The sites
that I'm leaving when I see this are not in my Allowed Sites list.

Is anyone else seeing this?  Is this a bug?

Keep in mind that if there is an instance of 1.1.X running when you
attempt to launch 2.0, you'll get another 1.1.X instance (unless you
do some command-line magic to prevent that).

Assuming you're running Windows (you don't say) - If you had quick\
launch enabled for 1.1.X, that will explain it. Disable that so it
doesn't start it automatically when you start Windows.

Just a shot in the dark using Win XP.  When you saved your files to the 
CD disk those files may have had their user permissions reset to Read 
Write Execute to 0 0 0.


Suggestion:  Create a folder (directory) on your hard drive then copy 
all the files from your CD,look at the folder on your HD for the file 
permissions and set all files from yhat folder to read, write, execute.


Make sure there is an "index.html" in this folder so SM can 
automatically open the home pafe.

major problem: Seamonkey will not open HTML files located on my HD ...
not when double-clicked, not with keyboard command, not with Finder
menu option either.  The application will launch but the file is not
displayed ... just a blank screen.  The only way to get the page to
display is you use the "Open File..." menu within Seamonkey.  !?!??!
Very odd ...  Any clues?


This is known and will be fixed in the 2.0.2 update.

browser won't open html files on disk

2009-12-30 Thread phillipm
Just installed Seamonkey 2.0.1 Browser on a MacBook Pro (running
10.5.8).  Migration from 1.1.18 when reasonably smoothly.  Just two
problems:  one minor and one major (given my usage)

major problem: Seamonkey will not open HTML files located on my HD ...
not when double-clicked, not with keyboard command, not with Finder
menu option either.  The application will launch but the file is not
displayed ... just a blank screen.  The only way to get the page to
display is you use the "Open File..." menu within Seamonkey.  !?!??!
Very odd ...  Any clues?

This is a deal-breaker as far as my be willing to use this software,
as I used the various previous versions of this program to create and
edit simple html files.

minor problem: needing to type password every time I launch the
program ...

How did you know which one to remove ?


My assumption wasn't that there was a bad entry but that there was some 
inconsistency in one of my address books that might get fixed by forcing 
SeaMonkey to make an update to it -- or that forcing an update might 
cause a crash or other bad behavior, thereby localizing the problem.

Found it"sort by...Threaded"

My son is visiting - maybe he changed it.

Bill,

  I'm pretty sure that your threading preferences are stored in the .msf file.
With the mailbox/newsgroup selected, look at View -> Threads, and select the
options you like. For newsgroups (and mailing list mailboxes) I use "Threads
with Unread".

Best Regards,



If that is true, it would explain why it changed to SORT BY |  UNTHREADED.

Must be the default.

Thanks.

DoctorBill

Uh? I just tried shift click while pointing at a link, it opened in a 
new tab... But I might have changed preferences here

upgrade failure

2009-12-30 Thread Szabadi Péter

I've had some unsuccessful attempts to upgrade my seamonkey under win xp.
Latest version working is 1.1.18. Later issues simply don't start after 
installing, so I had to remove them and reinstall 1.1.18.

Anybody can help me?

In the en-GB language pack, the warning says "Here be dragons". As I
said elsewhere, obviously in Britain, dragons are considered more
dangerous than lawyers.
