Isn't that one way to save the bookmarks other than saving the whole 
profile?


The other way is to select "Bookmarks" in the Menu bar, click "Manage 
Bookmarks", when the Library dialog opens select Tools > Backup and save 
them somewhere.




Then she went to "Browser", clicked On Start Up, found the page with 
"Choose File" with the HTML page already listed in the box, and clicked 
on "Okay".



Opened Preferences > Browser where there is the "Display on Browser 
Startup" setting with "Blank page", "Home page" and other selections 
then added the exported HTML file.




Then she clicked on "Home" and got a long page (titled Bookmarks Menu) 
full of stuff for Seamonkey (our browser) including the listing for the 
Bookmark. Clicking on Manage Bookmarks, she was unable to eliminate all 
the stuff other than the entry she wanted (the "real" bookmark). This 
was unlike previous experience, in which one could eliminate extraneous 
listings.


Maybe she should click on "Home" somewhere else, other than at the top 
of a Seamonkey page? Where else can she find Home?


Does the "Clicking the Home button takes you to this group of pages:" 
box still contain the <http://www.seamonkey-project.org/start/> link?


If not click "Restore Default" to restore it and you should be back to 
the normal SeaMonkey home page.


Is there some reason she can't copy the old profile and use the data in 
the new profile?

Home Page From Scratch

[Larry S.]

O.K., seems I was wrong in thinking my wife has saved her bookmarks--she 
didn't. So, new request. She has clicked on "Export BM To HTML".


Then she went to "Browser", clicked On Start Up, found the page with 
"Choose File" with the HTML page already listed in the box, and clicked 
on "Okay".


Then she clicked on "Home" and got a long page (titled Bookmarks Menu) 
full of stuff for Seamonkey (our browser) including the listing for the

Assuming that by "home page" you mean an HTML file that was displayed
when you clicked the "Home" button in the bookmarks toolbar just copy
that file to the new computer, open it with SeaMonkey, go to
Edit/Preferences/Browser and click the "Use current page" button. That
will configure the home button load your file.




There's actually a little more.  I'm not sure how Larry was getting this 
before, but as noted here, it appears that the home page has been set to 
use a bookmarks.html file. If the old computer died, hopefully, he's got 
backups to restore from.


Beyond that, there's two ways of creating a bookmarks.html file. You can 
do a one-off create with the Bookmarks Manager (Tools -> Export 
bookmarks to HTML), or you can do it automatically. There used to be a 
control that you could get through via Edit -> Preferences, and that's 
how I know that it exists, but I've forgotten where it is, and on a 
quick check, I can't find where that setting is.  However, it's 
something that actually controlled through the prefs.js file, and if you 
go to about:config, you can set browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML to 
True, and that allows an automatic export of your bookmarks every time 
you close down Seamonkey.


With that in place, I have multiple browsers and multiple profiles, and 
I've found it useful to set each profile to use the exported 
bookmarks.html file as a home page, and as a result, no matter what 
browser and profile I'm using, I always have a current list of my 
bookmarks immediately available. I've also gone one step further, in 
that I periodically copy the bookmarks.html file to a shared location on 
my LAN, where I can do the same thing with browsers and profiles on 
other computers that are connected to the LAN.


Smith

If the bookmarks were backed up as HTML, just dragging and dropping them 
onto the browser window should open that file as a page.  Then all you 
need to do is set the current page as the home page.

My SM preferences window says:

Note that it says "pages", not windows.

In SM help for the Home button, it says:

YES, me too.
So, It's impossible that SM open two windows instead of two tabs ?

1.  On the SeaMonkey menu bar, select [Edit > Preferences].

- When scripts want to open a new window: ("Don't divert custom windows

- Links from other applications - Open links passed from other

I think that's correct...
But SM open a new tab for the second url on the "home page" instead of
opening a new window.

So, what could I do ? Filing a bug ?

Works on this computer (linux 2.40) with everything turned off (Flash
WebM H.264). However, I did have to toggle 'media.autoplay.enabled' to
'true' in about:config to get it to actually play properly.

For some reason I'm not able to get SM2.46 to install on WinXP at the
moment, it just seems to try and die - I'll let you know when I do.

My ISP used to be Comcast but is now Verizon FiOS. If your ISP is
Comcast, maybe they automatically send you to my.xfinity.com

Don't know what to tell you... maybe post a screenshot? _All_ of my
SeaMonkey browsers: 2.40 and 2.45 on Windows 10 and linux redirect to
http://my.xfinity.com/?cid=cust
I suspect that could be because Xfinity/Comcast is my internet provider.
The only way that did not get a redirect was via a Tor browser:
https://s10.postimg.io/yrtsp0j8p/xfinitysearch_torbrowser.png

In any event, I was able to reproduce using a _clean test profile_ on
2.40. I cannot reproduce on 2.45 (Windows or linux). Screenshots are at:
 - the files are clearly labeled
as to which version I was using. Note: the primary redirect page was the
same on 2.40 as 2.45, so I did not add the 2.45 screenshot.

My suggestion to Zeb et al would be to file a bug report if one doesn't
already exisit in bugzilla. I'm not sure why it is working for me from
my normal 240 profile (except the web search) - the profile has been
around since the Netscape days, so it's quite likely that I have some
odd config setting that allows it to work. I also use prefbar & have
several custom toggle settings, so maybe something in there is allowing
it to work.

Confirmed. I have the same issue with that page as the OP does -- 
searches return a basically blank page, not even a "no results" 
notice. I have JavaScript enabled in the browser, so that's not it.


Now that it has been reproduced, after clearing caches, making sure 
javascript is checked, the problem still exists.


As for using a beta release, that is out of the question. I need stable 
releases for my friend. They don't need the additional headache.

Correct. It does work with Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome. It does not
work (I get the same blank page) with Seamonkey, Firefox and Safari

That is not what I'm referring to. There are two ways to get to the
Xfinity Search:

The pic you show is from

http://my.xfinity.com/?cid=dotcom_topnav_myxfn

and I haven't been able to get that work at all

What I and others have been using is

http://www.xfinity.com and Search from that URL works fine

Is this what you are referring to?
<https://s15.postimg.io/gcw8cvc7f/xfinitysearch.png>

Works for me with

Exactly what I see. His description does not match your description at
all. I wonder if he has an older version stored in cache and that is
what is appearing on his screen? Shouldn't "Clearing Cache" take care of
that kind of a problem?

I don't see that at all. To the right of the XFINITY label there is a
blank box without any label that says "search the web". There is nothing
on the right hand side that is a read box labeled "search".

If I enter something in the blank box, it will do a search. But what I
see is nothing like what you describe.

Hello,

NOT reproducible  with official en-US SeaMonkey 2.48a1  (NT 6.1; WOW64;
rv:51.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/51.0 Build 20160804000913  (Default
Classic Theme) on German WIN7 64bit

1. Launch Browser → visit 
   Do NOT Sign in (or log out if necessary)
2. ˋinto search string input bar in top right area of screen (below
   headings "Email   -   Sign In") Type "sports" → click magnifier
   symbol at right end of input barˊ
   » As expected first 10 of more than 400 results appear.

My suspect: Javascript is disabled for your Browser - please check!

If that's not the root and your result in step 3 differs from mine, we
will have to dig some deeper.

Unfortunately your problem report is not very useful. Everything would
work some faster if you follow advice:

a) Contribute a problem related step by step instruction containing
   every key press and every mouse click how to reproduce your
   problem due to


   (similar to report in Bug 1139273
)
b) Upload screenshots with comments if you believe that that
   might explain the problem better than a text comment.
   Best way is to insert your screenshots
   into a OOo or LibreOffice DRAW document and to add comments
   that explain what you want to show
c) add information
c1) concerning your Operating System (Version, Distribution, Language)
c2) concerning your SM localization (Version, UI language,
Locale setting)
c3) SM settings that might be related to your problems
May be you should attach a copy of menu
   'Help → Trouble shooting information”' as a text document
c4) how you launch SM (Double click on document? console? …)
c5) Whether problem persists in safe mode without add-ons
(menu Help → Restart with add-ons disabled)
c6) Whether problem persists with blank new profile
(Tools → Switch Profile →  ...)
c7) everything else crossing your mind after you read linked texts
d)  An URL for a web page where you observe the problem.

I have no problem using the search bar on XFINITY unless the Javascript
box is unchecked. You might want to make sure that it is checked.
Another test would be to open SM with the profile "Default User" to see
if the search works there. Works for me.

I provide support for an older couple. Several years ago, I had them 
start using Seamonkey.


Recently, they have not been able to use the search bar on the XFINITY 
home page. The only thing that works when searching is images. Using 
Chrome & Edge, the search function works as designed. Sam has no unusual 
addons f any type that would keep it from working. He's not too bad

Off thread but on topic, he is also frustrated by scripting errors but

Any ideas? He is using the most current version. Even spoofing FF 40.1

Does it not already?

"Edit > Preferences > Browser"

Display on "Browser Startup > Home Page" click the "Use Current 
Page"

button.

Just a little more granularity where you can also set for New
Window and
New Tab.


I think Ray's talking about an option available directly from a
browser window. For example, we already have "Go | Home" and
"Bookmarks | Bookmark This Page" on the menu.


That's nearly my idea, because the current place of the "Use Current
Page" button is too deeply hidden.
 From this point of view, MS is not user friendly.


Deeply hidden?  All you need to do is open Preferences, choose
Browser, and the choice of browser startup and what you get with the
Home button are right there.


Yes, hidden = FOUR steps/clicks ...not just one click if this button is
in front of me on one of the three toolbars :-)


Waid-a-minute, you just click on the current URL and drag and drop it 
onto the "HOME" button. - done

Too deeply? It's under "Preferences > Browser" Does one not expect to 
set preferences in Preferences? Also SeaMonkey has more granularity 
where you not only set your home page, but you can set preferences for 
new windows and tabs as well.


Certainly more deeply than Chris solution, instead of 4 clicks .. It's 
just ONE drag:


Drag the tab (or favicon) to the home button.

In your opinion. In mine, it's exactly where it best fits, same as before SM 
got it's name, when it was Mozilla Suite, same as before Mozilla Suite 
existed, in its predecessor, Netscape 4.


In case you didn't notice, SM by default doesn't even have a home button on 
the main navbar. For many people, "home" isn't even relevant, much less 
important enough to have a button on the main navbar. Technically, Google is 
my "home" page, but since it's my default search engine, and since my search 
box is on the top toolbar, I don't need any home "page". The search box 
provides what I would otherwise use a home page for.


OTOH, SM actually has two "home" buttons by default, one on the bookmarks 
toolbar, and the other the throbber, the latter of which must be configured 
via browser.throbber.url in about:config if you don't like its default. Mine 
is set to google.com/shopping.

<https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/toolbar-buttons/>.
Then go to <https://codefisher.org/toolbar_button/toolbar_button_maker/>
and get the Change Home button, and install that.

Then right-click on your menu bar or tool bar and select Customize from

Toolbar window, and drag it to whatever bar (menu or tool) where you

On the Browser pane of the Preferences window, there is a button Use
Current Page, which is enabled whenever the currently displayed Web page
does NOT have the same URI as listed in the "Clicking the Home button
..."  input area.


Exact ... but not easy to imagine that this button is there.
It would be perfect to have a "Put this your Home Page" button on the 
second toolbar.

Does it not already?

"Edit > Preferences > Browser"

Display on "Browser Startup > Home Page" click the "Use Current Page" 
button.


Just a little more granularity where you can also set for New Window and 
New Tab.

On the Browser pane of the Preferences window, there is a button Use
Current Page, which is enabled whenever the currently displayed Web page
does NOT have the same URI as listed in the "Clicking the Home button
..."  input area.

Yes, that's what I meant by "enter the URL just as you've done here." 
The dialog is the same for "Browser startup," "New page," and "New tab."

4.click button "Use Current Page"
5.select "Home page" radio button whilst "Display on" is set to "Browser

Yeah, they've had bad javascripts there for a long time. Fortunately, I

I assume http://www.earthlink.net/'s home page without logging in and
going to other web pages. It looked fine in my v2.31 on a very old,

It appears okay for me unless I disable CSS.  Note that there are two
CSS files:  http://m.eimg.net/pub/html/master2.min.css?hash=1008250904
and http://my.earthlink.net/css/slick.css?hash=666927.  If you have
any settings or extensions that inhibit the downloading or use of
either, that could be causing your problem.
