This is certainly very fine idea, and I like it, but this should most certainly be pushed upstream. Please file a bug report in the the upstream bugzilla located at http://bugzilla.mozilla.org in the particular component. Once you've filed your bug report to the upstream bugzilla, if you paste the new bug URL here, we will continue to track the issue in the centralized upstream bug tracker, and will review any bug fixes that become available for consideration in future updates. Setting status to NEEDINFO, and awaiting upstream bug report URL for tracking. Thanks in advance. upstream bug : https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=498836 Thank you |
Description of problem: Some times the user input the wrong Link address, but they will not recognize that, and believe it's a fault of the Thunderbird, it's better to give them an reminding message. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEL5 Client - thunderbird-2.0.0.22-2.el5_3 - i386 (en_US) How reproducible: Allways Issue 1 Compose Window--Insert Link Steps to Reproduce: 1. 'Ctrl + N' to open a new compose window 2. Type in some characters in the content field, 3. Chose some characters and add Link ("Insert > Link"), Actual results: The wrong URI will be accepted and none warning or reminding message it given. Expected results: Thunderbird expecting the user specify the whole path of the URI, the protocol could not be omit. If the user input a wrong URI, it will be better if a reminding popup dialogue occur or there's some drop down list, the users can choose the Protocol from it. Additional info: It's the standard usage, but it will hard to understand for the junior users. If there is some words appears when the user have not specify the protocol such as http:// , ftp://, etc, it will more easier to understanding their mistake, else, some users believe it's a bug of the Thunderbird. ==================== Issue 2 preferences - Set Thunderbird start page Steps to Reproduce: 1.
