Re: email attachments
Rick Merrill wrote: saving to disk email attachments in the 10MB range seem to take a long time. Am I doing something wrong or is the attachment getting scanned? Remember, an attachment is binary data converted to ascii text... an 8-bit to 7-bit conversion. Binary files increase in size by 14% when converted to text. Your 10 MB of attached text is equivalent to a typical shelf encyclopedia, like Britanica. In binary form it would be 8.9 megs. So, yes, it would be a slow process to convert an entire encyclopedia back to binary. -- Dean A.

Re: Odd Characters in Sidebar Search
when you actually do the search, does it return millions of pages that have some in them, millions of pages that have thing in them, etc, etc or just the pages that have some thing with spaces in them?? In other words, is the % a magic connecting character?? Daniel That test didn't use quotes to contain the phrase so no pages with those words in that exact order were returned, so yes, lots-o-pages with individual words highlighted (bolded). Upon the second search using the string that had the spaces replaced with %, the results were identical, so Google ignored the %. If I put a search phrase within quotes, such as walt disney world, the same thing happens. After clicking the search button in the sidebar (or hitting Enter key), the spaces are replaced with %, per walt%disney%world, and of course, the webpage returns hits with the highlighted phrase Walt Disney World. etc. etc. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
Re: Progress Window Mockups
Ah HAA! So THAT's where the old launch or run button that appeared after download completed hid itself! I was so missing that feature. Yes, I understand the need for security for the more naive in not presenting them with a big, fat run button out in the open like it was previously, BUT this seasoned veteran had absolutely NO visual indication that you could click on the filename in this dialog box and access these two open and open containing folder options. I was just about to write a complaint to have this option brought back. So, back to this thread, Yes, I like the slightly more clear indication (via the tiny triangle arrows) that the filename can be clicked (oh, AND the 'From' location just below it), but it still would have pass me by if I hadn't known such was the case. So, maybe make these two items look like buttons, but only slightly, if that makes sense, like making the background color just a shade lighter and surrounded by a slightly darker 1 pixel stroke. OR, just add an actual small button the size of the window min, max, close gadgets at the end of each line. shrug Dean Scott ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
Odd Characters in Sidebar Search
Ever since 2.x, the sidebar search entry field turns spaces into % symbols after a search is performed. For instance, I have Google as the default, and when I type in some thing with spaces and hit return, the entry line becomes some%thing%with%spaces (that was a direct copy/paste) while the actual Google website page search field contains some thing with spaces UNTIL I click the sidebar search button again, then the web page field is populated with some%thing%with%spaces Any idea why? Character encoding is the default western (ISO-8859-1).
