[opensuse] Mozilla Firefox Save Dialog Bug? Disappearing Favorites
Listmates, On 11.0, the latest firefox update makes the "favorites" in your save dialog disappear. The versio I'm running is: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.0.8) Gecko/2009032600 SUSE/3.0.8-1.1 Firefox/3.0.8 What happens when you go to a file from the web is that the "favorites" are not visible on the left side of the dialog. Attempting to add them again, draws the error that they already exist: http://www.3111skyline.com/download/screenshots/moz/invisible-favorites.jpg However, then next time you try and save something, then the atavistic favorite reappears! http://www.3111skyline.com/download/screenshots/moz/invisible-favorites1.jpg Something is funky. Wolfgang, what's up?? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

No response? Can anyone else confirm this behavior? To confirm it, you would have to have added favorites to the save dialog. I use them religiously, others may not, but surely there is at least one other that utilizes this functionality in FF? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

I don't understand your question. My save file as, in FF, looks similar to yours. But what is a favourite? You mean the third section of the left hand panel, that lists a group of directories that you have defined as favourite places? That's a gnome feature, not FF. I add them usually via Nautilus. What is it you are trying to do and fails, add a new folder to the favourites list, or add a file to one of those favourites? - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

Sorry Carlos, Yes, I mean the left hand panel titled "Places". I guess I had favorites stuck in my mind from talking about it on the FF list some time ago when the 2.x-3.x dialog mess took place to begin with. The entries in "Places" are disappearing (they're still there, they're just invisible) until you try and re-add them which prompts the error shown in my original post that they "already exist". That's what I should have said to begin with ;-p -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Ah, then I can't reproduce your problem, it works fine here. I'm using 11.0, gnome, and the last "official" firefox from the update repo, which is... ah, 3.0.8. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
