Hmmm . . . My User Agent shows Firefox 41.0 for SM 2.38. Maybe a difference

Actually, no clue as to why.

Is it possible that you set a preference variable to indicate Firefox 36 and 
forgot to change it?

Or is it possible that you have a UA-changing extension that needs updating?

Go to [Edit > Preferences] on the SeaMonkey menu bar, select [Advanced > HTTP 
Networking], and make sure there is a check in the checkbox for "Advertise Fire 
compatibility".  Terminate SeaMonkey.  Launch SeaMonkey in Safe Mode.  On the 
menu bar, select [Help > Troubleshooting Information].  What version of Firefox 
is shown?

I'd like to say this work around works for me with the
alt.binaries.pictures.scenic newsgroup, but it doesn't on my Usenet-News
account. Could it be my news server? All I see is Downloading articles
1-1 in alt.binaries.pictures.scenic in the status bar, and no activity
on my DSL router.

It works with images posted in the mozilla.test.multimedia newsgroup.

And now it is working in the alt.binaries.pictures.scenic newsgroup.



Occasionally working. Sigh. Just use Thunderbird, they load instantly.

Is there a Bugzilla bug filed? If so, what status is marked against it?
This has gone on for how long now? I'd almost say that the developers
have no interest in fixing this particular bug. Almost as they may have
other more important bugs  to work but this one is approaching major
irritant status and is blocking a lot of folks from upgrading including me.

Excuse my ignorance, this bug has obviously been a problem in the past and perhaps 'fixed' and re-appeared after 2.26.1 Is the Bugziila post above still viewed by the 
'developers' if not is there any other way we can draw it to their attention.

Right-click choose Properties - Change Icon button.  Select an icon.



On the active icon there's no such option.

The strange thing is I start Seamonkey normal, and it opens with my
normal browser homepage.
Right-clicking on the icon in the task bar, somehow shows Seamonkey
Mail
as the top of the 3 items listed in the bottom (Seamonkey Mail, pin to
task bar, close all windows).
So somehow starting normal with browser, opening the browser...
Seamonkey thinks I'm in Seamonkey Mail.


Mark



Oops. Sorry, I was reading too fast.  I was thinking of the icon in the
Quick Launch toolbar.

If you go to Edit - Preferences - Appearance what is checked under
When
SeaMonkey starts up, open?




Browser is selected at that option.


If only Browser is checked the only other way I can think that a mail
window is opening is a shortcut in:

C:\Users\[user name]AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start
Menu\Programs\Startup

Also, in about:config you should check that general.startup.mail is set
to false.



In about.config all was set as normal and as expected, only browser was
set to true.

Seamonkey was not found in my startup folder, but in the programs
folder, I now removed the shortcut to mail (leaving normal browser,
profile manager and safe mode shortcuts in tact).
Restarting SeaMonkey... shows my beloved seamonkey icon again.
Very strange phenomenon, but all seems back to normal I guess.

Thanks for thinking along.

Mark



One more addition.
If I put the shortcut back in that directory (restore back form the 
trashcan), the same problem reoccurs, starting basic seamonkey (browser) 
shows the wrong icon of mail/news

Oops. Sorry, I was reading too fast.  I was thinking of the icon in the
Quick Launch toolbar.

If you go to Edit - Preferences - Appearance what is checked under When
SeaMonkey starts up, open?




Browser is selected at that option.


If only Browser is checked the only other way I can think that a mail
window is opening is a shortcut in:

C:\Users\[user name]AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start
Menu\Programs\Startup

Also, in about:config you should check that general.startup.mail is set
to false.



In about.config all was set as normal and as expected, only browser was 
set to true.


Seamonkey was not found in my startup folder, but in the programs 
folder, I now removed the shortcut to mail (leaving normal browser, 
profile manager and safe mode shortcuts in tact).

Restarting SeaMonkey... shows my beloved seamonkey icon again.
Very strange phenomenon, but all seems back to normal I guess.

Thanks for thinking along.

In the SeaMonkey root -- the folder where SeaMonkey itself is installed,
not a profile folder -- find the folder named chrome.  Navigate down:
[chrome  icons  default].  On the folder's menu bar, select [View 
Large Icons].  There should be an .ico file named main-window.ico.

Is that icon what you expect?  Its image might appear smaller than some
of the others, but that is not important.



Yes,
That's exactly the one I expect, the normal SeaMonkey logo.
But it shows the messengerWindow.ico

PROGRAM INCOMPATIBILITY....

2014-01-05 Thread M. Randolph Kruger



Downloaded the latest version Seamonkey...2.23.  Loaded fine, brought it 
up fine. Program when I enter any sort of video locks up... adobe 
failure. So for the last 4 days I have worked the adobe problem and then 
decided it wasnt adobe. All of the other programs worked but the second 
I went to Fox or tried to play a saved program, it locked... Just as it 
did when seamonkey tried to do it.


Documentation-A lot of it and I eliminated problems 1x1 by changing 
parameters and then running it. On a suggestion by an adobe 
administrator he suggested I go to werfault and see what happened when I 
ran it and then allowed it to by pass all of the known programs. Punched 
it in and now its working. So, for OLDER programs I might be using the 
program compatibility issue will come up. Some of the videos are older, 
some newer but 2.23 doesnt shift gears to load the program, it just 
locks and says please come fix me. The same will happen with Seamonkey 
mail as well. It forgets what its doing and locks up. Please come fix me.


I remember somewhere reading that there could be issues with this from 
the 2.19 documentation but that should jump right to the werfault and at 
least  advise a compatibility issue. A lot of people will dump Seamonkey 
if they are encountering it. No wonder.


Not sure if you dont want to run it to the werfault and have it advise, 
OR do you automatically do it and change the program. It appears to be 
working fine in compatibility mode.

Not for a very long time (Knocking on desktop).  Looking at my return 
address you will see a real live mail address.  The folks managing this 
form have somehow gotten rid of the ,ail harvesters (RidEx maybe).


Your e-mail address can be harvested from many sources and hten sold to 
the SPAM senders on a CD.  Some of the more likely resources for 
harvesting are:

Your own e-mail server.
Your own web site where you listed your e-mail address and not hiddent 
it from Spambots.
A mel form where your mail address is behind the viewable page, and not 
reserved on the web server.

Any web site form where you have to enter a valid e-mail address.

How to get rid if it?  Its too late now.

How to prevent it for the future (May take a year or more from today). 
Create a junk mail account on your current server, Gmail.com, or any 
free mail server.  Use that address for any time you have to use a real 
e-mail address.  This one is easy to trash all unwanted messages. 
Later, for wanted messages go to the original web site and update your 
e-mail address to your preferred address.


If you have a web site your e-mail address must be hidden from the 
Spambots with a script.


If your web site has a contact form your e-mail address must be 
contained within the script on the server, and the server directory must 
have access permissions set to only allow you to write and your web page 
script to send data to the server.

To the best of my knowledge the smileys in SM are proprietary to 
SeaMonkey/Mozilla/Netscape, and are hidden inside the applications.


When you insert a SM smiley only people using a modern version of SM can 
translate the ASCII symbols to a graphical smiley.



A few years ago there was a smiley application that would integrate with 
the Netscape Communicator e-mail suite and insert a hyperlink to the 
smiley image hosted on a third party server.  This only worked 
successfully in HTML mail.


You can create your own smiley graphics and insert them into any HTML

Actually, the simley image is generated by the recipient's application.
  If your recipient would look at the message source as received, the
ASCII smiley would be there.  In the case of newsgroups, you should
select [View  Message Source] from the menu bar.  You will see only the
ASCII smiley.

If you go to [View  Zoom], you can select or deselect Zoom Text Only.
Deselected, zooming will make the smiley image larger or smaller as the
text is also zoomed.



Sorry, David.

I thought the poster was referring to the Smileys that used to be with 
Mozilla based e-mail.  They are ASCII characters converted to graphic 
icons.  They are not accessible to the user, just from the HTML editor.


When a user receives a HTML message he sees the graphical icon, but when 
he only reads ASCII mail he sees only the ASCII characters that 
represent the icon.

Due to the constant decreasing quality of composer HTML SM mail
will at a certain time become unusuable.
At that time, we were obliged to work in pure text only - the next step
is:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/**Punched_tapehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punched_tapeto
send TELEX :-)

Nonsense. I'm having no trouble sending email in html (my default).

So, you are able to Delete Table Rows or Cells ... tell us what is your

method ?

There are various work-arounds shown in the Bugzilla refs cited. And they
all work. And the issue, in the GUI, will be fixed shortly.

And, frankly, given that Mozilla has given up on Composer, like, what? A
decade ago? Why are we even discussing it?

Well, okay. Because Composer ought to have been stripped out of SeaMonkey
long ago as an abandoned component. It isn't utile, it isn't being
supported, it produces horrible HTML and CSS (if at all).

This is a mid-1990s code/app that ought to be tossed on the trash heap.
It encourages non-compliant Web page creation that will likely break in
various browsers. And this from a goup that prides itself on compatability.

As of Daniel's following comment, yes. I rarely (some odd conversion
routines) use Composer (or the other variants) other than to check
complaints here but I DO check the complaints and functionality. But I
could use any of the variants for that too.

Composer ought to be shot in the head. It ought to have been shot in the
head 10 years ago.

It sullies the suite/SeaMonkey. Get rid of it. If others want to try to
give its marginal value life by working on its code once in a while, fine,
let them live with it. Don't sullie SeaMonkey with its inclusion.

It doesn't work. Period.

And, frankly, no other WYSIWYG thingie produces verifiable code much much
more regularly.

If you're using it to produce Web pages I suggest you run them through the
W3C Validator:

javascript:void(window.**location='http://validator.w3.**
org/check?uri='+escape(window.**location)http://validator.w3.org/check?uri='+escape(window.location)
)

Save that link above. Open your page created with Composer and click the
link.

Finally, the answer is: If you're going to write Web pages, learn how.
Don't rely on some ill-written program to spew out broken code.

There has been (and I was doing it in the late 80s and early 90s) an
ongoing effort to produce programs that generate code for people who don't
know how to do it. With valid output. I don't know of one that does it
100%.

There is no substitute for writing valid code.

And, yes, I do understand that there are arguments about whether HTML and
CSS are, indeed, code. But that's another argument.

Yanking a feature that people were using successfully until a few days

Hi:

Maybe it is time to strip Composer out of the Internet Suite, and 
include only the browser and e-mail.  At least let the user know 
Composer is now a broken application and allow the user to exclude it 
from the download and install.

LnrB,

I don't remember exactly where it is in your older version, I have 2.10 
here and it has changed.
If your version has the Bookmarks selection on the top menu bar click 
it, then look for Manage Bookmarks.  There you will find either an 
Import selection, or another method to locate your old bookmarks.

Per domain? Very good question. And it would be nice to have.
Theoretically one would think it would be there. Theoretically
hostperm.1 would have handled it (in older Mozilla's). Don't know if the
guts are still in place  even if so how you would now enter such data
(as it would go into a .sqlite file  there is no UI for it). You would
think Data Manager would offer access (again assuming the back-end parts

Thank you, Michael, it's good to see you.

I found that pref and Unchecked it, thank you. I looked for something
like that before, but being unfamiliar with this version I didn't see it.

There are several other things I would like to do also. Like lose the
Really *Stupid* throbber and replace it with my favorite square one like
I had in v1.09. But I don't even see a user.chrome folder here. Whose
bright idea what that?? (yeah, I know...)

Not only that, the bookmarks are imported, but they're all in one big
conglomeration, which I have to re-write if I want them in discrete
folders on the tool bar where they're actually useful.

I can't wait to see how many other things aren't where they 'should' be.
LOL
Thank you for your help, Michael. It's been *Such* a long time.
(';')



LnrB,

You are very welcome.

The reason you have not seen me here is I got real upset over the 
developers dropping support for the majority of the tools I used 
everyday.  This began after the release of v.2.0, and got worse with 
each upgrade.  I finally reverted back to v.2.1 where everything I need 
still works.

Re: can't remove corrupt SeaMonkey file

SeaMonkey 2.16.2, WinXP Pro SP3. I've been trying to delete (or fix) a corrupt 
file on my pc at:
C:\Documents and Settings\NormM\Local Settings\Application 
Data\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\Profiles\vkxwuggr.default\Cache.Trash31234

I've tried most on-line recommended solutions methods but none work. Help. TIA



Norm,

I have the same set-up as you, but without the problem.
The Cash.Trash could be a folder that contains a hidden file, hidden by 
the Windows XP Operating System, or it could be a file still in use by 
something.


A quick test is to shutdown and power off for 60 sec.
Power up and boot into Windows Safe-Mode.  This will start Windows in 
its most reduced operating system.  Nothing automatic will start, 
external hardware will not load, and antivirus should not launch, so to 
be safe unplug your internet cable.
When Windows is booted navigate to the offending folder and look inside, 
if its empty step back and delete the folder.  If it is not empty delete 
the files shown in that directory.  Then delete the folder.  If the 
folder cannot be deleted, or the folder shows no files, they may be 
hidden by the system.


Back all the way out and open Control Panel from your Start Menu. 
Navigate to Folder Options and open the tab View.  Look for items 
that read like: Hidden files and folders.  Unhide these options.  Then 
look for Hide extensions for know file types, and Hide protected 
operating system files.  Remove the checks to hide these options.


Close everything back to your desktop, reboot your system.

IMPORTANT!  You will now be shown any/and all Windows Operating System 
type files and folders, if you delete the wrong file you could trash 
your system.


The good news: you should not see any system files in/or under your 
Profile Folder, and if you find one in your subject Cache.Trash folder 
it dose not belong here.



Finally, if you do find a file in your Cache.Trash folder and cannot 
delete it step back to the folder just ahead of the Cache.Trash folder. 
 Right click on Cache.Trash and select Properties, look down at 
Attributes and click on the green square to remove it, click Apply, then 
click on the radio button to apply to all files and subfolders.
This will remove the write only attribute to any and all files in 
folders within the Cache.Trash folder and all subfolders.

Silverfox,

It has been a long time since I tried that rout, I can only guess.

If SM cannot automatically import all your old file content (Bookmarks,

manually import them from the user interface in SM.

Thanks Michael, but it`s been a very long time since I went through this
and can not remember exactly what to do? Can you help?

Silverfox,

SeaMonkey is built like an Apartment House, each floor is a different 
function; mail, browser, address book, chat, etc.  In each user 
interface you should see a menu bar near the top of the window, and one 
of the tabs will read Tools.  In tools you should have an option to 
Import data.  This all works well if the data can be found.  One big 
problem in earlier versions of the Internet Suite was the ability to 
install the program and its files in custom made folders/directories in 
place of the default pathways SeaMonkey had in its install 
configuration.  That is why we have an Import Option.

I know this is an old thread, but here's another vote for putting that highlight

This started a couple months ago. My video card had died sorta, the fan

Well, this PC is circa October 2006, still, dual-core, 3GHz, tons of

It may just be age (mine or the PC or both) ... maybe I just relegate

Ed,

This may not be a Mozilla problem, it may be a Windows OS problem.

Check your desktop settings for: Screen Saver = Blank
Screen Saver/Advanced/Power Schemes = Home/Office Desk.  Turn off 
monitor after 15min, all remaining options = Never.


Sometimes a program, or web app. will temporarily change the Windows 
functions, and they need to be reset.

Hello John,

The only way we can try to asst you is if you provide more detailed
information on your problem.

Example:  The links in the left navigation panel look fine.  They are
white, underlined, change to Italic font, and look like Arial Font.
After clicked and connected they rmain the same.

You also have an external Style Sheet and Composer will not read the
META tag for CSS.  For that you need Komposer. or BlueGriffin.

Michael G


Oh so that is why the colors are off in the SM Composer, I have those
apps but do not like them as much as SM. When will SM solve this issue
for I love SM and do not like those other editors.


John,

I cannot say if or when SeaMonkey/Composer will ever be updated.  It has 
been many years since any work has been done to the HTML editor.  There 
was some talk a long time ago about importing Komposer, or BlueGriffin 
into the SeaMonkey suite, but that has been silent for a very long time.


The best thing you can do for the time being is to use either HTML 
editor, or a plain text editor, and use SeaMonkey as a proof-reader. 
While editing a document has SM open to the page you are editing.  When 
you make a change, save the change, then reload SM to see the results.

I do use TextWrangler sometimes to edit HTML code and it has one major
advantage in it can upload to the FTP server without me having to launch
my FTP client. A feature I wish Sea Monkey had!

You are very correct.



Beau,

It could be that no one at SM knows how to remove it from the suite, and 
still allow mail to compose messages in HTML.


If they did figure out how to remove it without harm, would SeaMonkey 
still be an Internet Suite?


It seems logical that the SM development team leader could contact the 
developer of BlueGriffin and talk about porting BG into SM.

I would imagine that it would require very little work
to remove it from the user interface, leaving the kernel
in place, but if that were done, die-hard Composer users
would (with complete justification) ask Why have you done
that ?.


Would it be a suite if they removed Chat?


Of course.

Philip,

The logical resolution is to regress a few versions and let the user 
decide which elements from the Toolbox he wants to download and install.


It all goes back to the age old argument, what the user wants, not what 
the developer wants.


I can tell you this from experience.  If Sea Monkey were provided at a 
cost to the user I would find something else.
